CLIP
Field of Application Statement for enabling/disabling the printing of partial fi elds.
Syntax CLIP [BARCODE [HEIGHT|INFORMATION|X|Y]][ON|OFF]
BARCODE toggles between partial bar code fi elds enable/disable.
BARCODE HEIGHT clips the height of the bar so the bar code will fi t
inside the print window. A one-dimensional bar code
may still be readable.
BARCODE INFORMATION clips the bar code lengthwise, so some bars will be
missing, making the bar code unreadable.
BARCODE X clips the part of the bar code that is outside the
X-dimension of the print window.
BARCODE Y clips the part of the bar code that is outside the
Y-dimension of the print window.
ON enables use of partial text, image, line, and box fi elds.
OFF disables use of partial text, image, line, and box fi elds.
Remarks
Partial fi elds means that the fi rmware will accept and print text, bar code,
image, lines, and box fi elds even if they extend outside the print window
as specifi ed by the printer’s setup in regard of X-Start, Width, and Length.
Even negative PRPOS values are allowed. However, all parts the fi elds
outside the print window will be excluded from the printout, that is they will
be clipped at the borders of the print window.
There are two main cases:
CLIP BARCODE [HEIGHT|INFORMATION|X|Y] is used for bar code
fi elds only. (Note that some bar codes, like Maxicode, consist of images and
should in this context be regarded as image fi elds.)
CLIP ON|OFF is only used for text, image, line, and box fi elds.
When the use of partial fi elds is disabled, the Error 1003, “Field out of label”
will result if any fi eld extends outside the print window.
Note the difference between the physical size of the label and the size of
the print window specifi ed by the printer’s setup. It is the latter that decides
were the fi elds will be clipped.
Example In this example, only the last part of the text will be printed:
10 CLIP ON
20 PRPOS -100,30
30 PRTXT "INTERMEC PRINTER"
40 PRINTFEED
