4.4.1 A SAMPLE SESSION (HEADER)

This is the label header from the sample label in section 4.3.

5,812,1218,,20,35

5 - 5 fields following the header

812 - Label width (LSX) of 812 (812/203 = 4 inches).

1218 - Label length (LSY) of 1218 (1218/203 = 6 inches).

- The WEB parameter can be defaulted.

20 - A GAP between labels of 20 (20/203 = 0.10 inch).

35 - Label print speed (DPS) of 35 = 2 inches per second

(from Table 3)

- No entry for the LCB parameter means default value of

0, normal stock on backing paper.

- The AGD could be defaulted. This value was confirmed

using the auto-size command.

- SPG could be defaulted. This value was confirmed using

the auto-size function.

 - A carriage return must follow the label header. There were

some parameters left that were not entered into the header -

OFX and OFY. Because they were not entered, the printer

assumes the default values, 0 in their cases. Likewise, since

the AGD and SPG were defaulted, the carriage return could

have followed the DPS.

Note: Defaulted fields must be separated by commas and ending commas may

be omitted.
