Specifications

The format for the ^LL instruction is:

^LLy

where

^LL = Set Label Length

y = Number of Dots Along Y-Axis

Default value:

1225 for Stripe

1244 for Xi printers

NOTE: Value must be entered or instruction is

ignored.

(8 in. using 6 dot/mm printhead)

(6 in. using 8 dot/mm printhead)

(3 in. using 12 dot/mm printhead)

Acceptable values: from 1 up to some 4-digit number

that does not exceed the maximum label size.

The following formula can be used for figuring the value of ‘y.’

For 6 dot/mm printheads.....

Label length in inches x 152.4 (dots/inch) = value for ‘y’

For 8 dot/mm printheads.....

Label length in inches x 203.2 (dots/inch) = value for ‘y’

For 12 dot/mm printheads.....

Label length in inches x 304.8 (dots/inch) = value for ‘y’

NOTE 1: Values for y depend on the memory size. If the entered

value for y exceeds acceptable limits, bottom of label will be cut off.

Label will also shift down from top to bottom.

NOTE 2: If multiple ^LL instructions are issued in the same label

format, the last ^LL instruction will also affect the next label. unless it is

prior to the first ^FS.
