A-Class 155
Advanced File Handling Information
 The Standard Datamax Printer leaves the factory with EFIGS loaded into module Y. At this point,
Module Y is LOCKED and will only accept additional Language Downloads.
 After downloading a language update, Module Y is left UNLOCKED until the printer is reset or
power is cycled. In this state, Module Y will accept font, image and label format downloads. The
module will also honor the Clear Module request. Therefore, following an update it is recommended
that a reset be performed to lock the module; otherwise, a software package may ‘Clear All Modules’
thus destroying the new menu language(s).
 Module Y can be UNLOCKED by sending this DPL string: <STX>KpY0.
 To restore the factory generated EFIGS image, download the file *832296.01A to the printer. This file
is located on the Datamax FTP site. The letter at the end of the file name (e.g., A) specifies the
revision. The latest revision will be available on the FTP site.
 Downloading the same language twice will automatically delete the first occurrence, but will not free
the memory space. Use the Pack Module feature (see Section 4.2.4) or reload the EFIGS file to free
the space.
 Deletion of the selected language will set the printer to English.
 The total number of languages that the printer can now accept is limited to 10, but this number is
dependent upon the size of each language translation. The translation size will vary with the number
of messages that are translated for that particular language. Current complete language files are about
7,000 bytes each but with product growth, the total number of languages is expected to drop to seven.
