Command Parameter
^CA
Cancels all the batches in the queue unless an error exists on the printer.
^CB
Cancels only the current batch being printed unless an error exists.
^DD or ^DCd
Disables the MPCL data escape character (the tilde) and inhibits MPCL from acting on ANY data escape sequence
from the host. Sets the MPCL data escape character to the ASCII value given by the d parameter. The value can
be any ASCII character.
^EA
Aborts an error condition. May need to be sent multiple times. Use ^RB to reprint batch.
CAUTION: This command causes the current batch to stop and the condition that caused the error to remain
uncorrected.
^ER
Resets the error. Normal operation resumes.
^FD
Feeds a label when printer is idle. Simulates the operation of pressing FEED and dispenses the next label if the
printer is in the on-demand mode.
Note: Printer ignores this command if printing.
^ID or ^ICd
Disables the Immediate Command feature by turning off the Immediate Command escape character. Sets the
Immediate Command escape character to the ASCII value given by the d parameter. The value can be any ASCII
character. Use ^IE to enable immediate commands.

has the same effect as turning off and then turning on the printer. Note: Command should be used only when the
printer is not printing.
