Please note that this command may take some time (depending on how much
is stored). During this time the printer will not respond to commands. The
printer may appear to be locked up until the command finishes.
Hint: Use command ^D119 to confirm that FONTS and GRAPHICS were erased in
user FLASH memory, and that all downloaded FORMATS, FONTS, and
GRAPHICS were erased in RAM.
5.13 Printer Code Update
^A ^D COMMAND
X 7 Update Printer Code:
This command is used to update the printer’s flash memory in the event new
or enhanced features exist in a different software version. Sending a
^A62519^D7 command will update the printer’s bootloader, application, and
embedded font set. This process requires some interactivity with the printer
and failure to follow the proper process will cause the printer to become
inoperable. Please contact your Microcom Corporation Representative for
more information.
5.14 Miscellaneous Commands
5 Send Printer Status: (Equivalent ^E)
X 93 Load Control Code Recognition Status:
0 Enable control code recognition
1 Disable control code recognition
X 113 Verbose Mode:

X 145 List Commands:
This command is used to generate a list of commands containing a brief
description of the LDSI code base that the printer uses. Issuing a ^D145 or
^A0^D145 causes the printer to generate a list of commands supported by the
LDSI code base to communications port.
0 List LDS Commands
1 List current settings
2 List Soft-switch descriptions
X 146 Pre Stock-Out Distance:
This command sets the distance in dots that the PSO option uses to feed the
media when the >INPUT 1< sensor detects an out of media condition. If the
length of the label happens to be larger than the distance from the pre stock
out sensor to the dot row (^D146 command) the printer will not be able to
completely finish printing the last label. Other than this, the operation of the
printer will be the same as above. The printer’s default distance is set to 1800
and issuing a “0” (^A0^D146) will cause the printer to reset to this value. The
maximum setting is 7200 and values above this setting will be ignored.
