Selecting Prefix and Delimiter Characters (next three parameters)
Prefix and delimiter characters are 2-digit hex values used within the ZPL/ZPL II formats sent to the
printer. The printer uses the last prefix and delimiter characters sent to it, whether from a ZPL II
instruction or from the front panel.
Do not use the same hex value for the control, format, and delimiter characters. The printer needs to see
different characters to function properly.
