Use a tilde (~) followed by a 3-digit ASCII code in a quoted
string to send function codes or extended characters or send
the 8-bit ASCII code.
You can modify formats and fields with the optional entry method.
See "Optional Entry Method" in Chapter 6 for more information.
Using Online Configuration Packets
Use online configuration packets to change the printer settings.
You can send an individual packet or a packet that contains all
eight online configuration packets. You can supply all parameters
for each packet. Leave the parameters blank that you do not
need to change. For example,
{ I
,A,,,,1 p } prints a slashed zero and uses the last sent online
System Setup parameters.
Make a copy of the online configuration worksheet in Appendix D,
"Format Design Tools," and save the original. Packets A-M are
listed on the worksheet.
When you turn off the printer, all the information in the online
configuration packets is saved and used when the printer is
turned back on. After you change printer configurations, you
must resend the format, batch, or graphic to the printer before the
changes take effect.
Configuration Packet Header
Always include an I
, immediately after the left bracket { and
before the packet identifier (A, B, C, etc.). The I
parameter
identifies the data stream as a configuration packet.
