2-2-4 SL (Set Length)
Description
Set length of label and gap(or Black Mark) and specify media type.
Syntax
SLp1,p2(,p3)(,p4)
Parameters
p1 : Label length [dots] : Maximum 2432 dots(12 inch)
♣ Double buffering feature can be used only when label length(p1) is less
than 1216(2432/2, 6inch) dots.
♣ If p1 is over 1216 dots, the double buffering feature will be automatically
released.
♣ So if you don’t use double buffering feature, you can design maximum
2432 dots(12 inch) size label.
p2 : Gap length or thickness of black line [dots]
p3 : Media Type
p3 Media type
G Gap
C Continuous
B Black Mark
♣ If this parameter is not used, automatically set to G(Gap type).
♣ The default value of label length is 6 inch(1216 dots)
♣ This command sets the length of image buffer and the printer will print
and form feed as much as the length set by this command.
♣ When using Continuous type media, the label length must be set.
p4 : Offset Length between Black Mark(or Gap) and perforation line [dots]
♣ This parameter is valid when p3 parameter is used.
Examples)
SL1200,20 → Gap media,Media length:1200dots,Gap length:20dots
SL1200,20,C → Continuuous media,Media length:1200dots,Gap length:20dots
SL1200,20,G → Gap media,Media length:1200dots,Gap length:20dots
SL1200,20,B → Black Mark media,Media length:1200dots,Gap length:20dots
The perforation line is on the black mark.
SL1200,20,B,200 → Black Mark media,Media length:1200dots,Gap length:20dots
The perforation line is 200 dots behind from black mark.
♣ In the Gap Mode, the printer will form feed until meeting the next gap.
♣ In the Continuous Mode, the printer will form feed as much as label length set by SL.
♣ In the B/M Mode, the printer will form feed until meeting the next B/M.
