Extended System Commands
32 E-Class DPL Programmer’s Manual
Present Adjust Fine-tunes the label stop position (see notes below).
Serial Port Configuration This command is followed by the port ID, always ‘A’ (i.e., SPA)
then by the configuration parameter and value of Baud or Data Bits:
Baud Rate The SPABnn command sets the baud rate for the printer serial port, where nn
may be any of the following:
Bnn Baud Rate (Bits Per Second)
12 1200
24 2400
48 4800
96 9600
19 19200
38 38400
Sample: <STX>KcSPAB38<CR>
The above sample sets the printer serial port baud rate to 38400 BPS (the host computer
communications setup is expected to be the same) and has the same effect as using the Setup
Menu.
Data Bits The <STX>KcSPADn command selects either 7 or 8 data bits, where n may be
either of the following:
Dn Data bits (word length)
77
88
Sample: <STX>KcSPAD8<CR>
The above sample sets the printer serial port to receive eight-bit words (the host computer
communications setup is expected to be the same) and has the same effect as using the Setup
Menu.
SOP Adjust Fine-tunes the label Start Of Print position (see note below).
Stop Location
–Configures the printer for all standard label present positions, as follows:
Setting Stop Location
Host Provides backward compatibility for users engaging the cutter or Present Sensor to
achieve present distances. The stop location (present distance) may be controlled
dynamically by the host using the <STX>f or <STX>Kf commands. This selection
has the same effect as <STX>KD Ignore Host Distance bit value 0.
Peel Sets the stop location to approximately 2 mm behind the peel bar edge, a nominal
peel position. The Present Sensor status and this setting are independent.
Cut Sets the stop location to a nominal cut position. For die-cut media, the position is just
following the end of the label. The cutter status and this setting are independent.
Cover Sets the stop location to that of the tear bar on the printer cover.
None Sets the stop location to the start of the next label, equivalent to setting the
<STX>KD Ignore Host Distance bit value 1.
Note: The Peel, Cut, Cover, and None settings prevent host commands from affecting start
of print (<STX>O) and stop position (<STX>f, <STX>Kf) commands from being
honored. All stop locations can be adjusted with PRESENT ADJUST.
