79
Paper Instruction (PI) Enable/Disable
Purpose Enables or disables use of the PI line using a parallel I/O device.
(This command does not enable/disable PI line sensing; it
enables or disables use of the “sensed” PI line.)
Mode NORMAL
Format (cc)EN-PI or (cc)DIS-PI
(cc) The Special Function Control Code.
EN-PI The Enable PI command; enter EN-PI. When this
command is enabled, the IGP/PGL senses PI line,
the 8 bits of data are interpreted as a paper
instruction command, and the PI line itself is
ignored.
DIS-PI The Disable PI command; enter DIS-PI. When the
Disable PI command is sent, the 8 bits of data are
interpreted as printable characters, and not as a
paper instruction command.
Print File

the SETUP functions that exist.
Mode NORMAL
Format (cc)PRINT;
filename
(cc) The Special Function Control Code.
PRINT The Print File command; enter PRINT.
filename

Comments Do not use wildcard characters because the Print File command
will attempt to print any file in the flash.
