7-8 Packet Reference Manual
To clear an error, press Feed. An ENQ can also clear errors numbered less than 500. Once
the error is corrected, a job request can be sent. The printer cannot accept another job
request until the error is resolved.
The following syntax is the response for a Job 4 request.
Syntax {J,printed,total,"FMT-1","BCH-2"}
Printed the number of tags or labels already printed in the batch.
Total the total number of tags or labels to be printed in the current batch.
“FMT-1/BCH-2" The format or batch number is returned.
Example {J,8,25,"FMT-3","Bch-2"}
8 out of 25 tags or labels have been printed from format number 3.
Use a Job Request 4 when printing in the on-demand mode with a large number of tags or
labels from a single batch. A Job Request 4 may not be accurate if tags or labels are printed
in continuous mode, because of the response time involved. A Job Request 4 is not useful in
single ticket batches (printing 1 of 1) or multiple single ticket batches.
Note: A batch has to be printing when you send the job request. You cannot use this job
request on batches printing formats with incrementing fields.
