OPTIMIZE ON/OFF
The OPTIMIZE ON statement is used to speed up batch printing.
There are three optimizing strategies:
"PRINT" The processing, which is performed before the print-
ing starts, is minimized on the basis of an analysis of the
preceding label's appearance.
"STRING" All printable strings are converted to bitmap format,
which makes the printing faster, provided the strings
are not altered between copies. However, this requires
more RAM memory. Should any difficulties be en-
countered during printing, disable the "STRING"
optimizing strategy and try again.
"BATCH" The program execution will not wait for the label to be
printed, but proceeds as soon as the print image has
been transferred to the image buffer.
If no strategy is specified in the OPTIMIZE ON statement, both
"PRINT" and "STRING" optimizing strategies will be enabled at
the same time.
In case of batch printing with LTS& OFF and CUT OFF, the
"BATCH" optimizing strategy is automatically enabled.
OPTIMIZE OFF revokes OPTIMIZE ON.
