9 File Management Commands 9.1 DOWNLOAD Description "DOWNLOAD" is a header of the file that is to be saved in the printer's memory. The downloaded files can be divided into two categories: program files and data files (including text data files, PCX graphic files and bitmap font files) The detailed descriptions regarding the download syntax for different files are as follows: Maximum numbers of file saved in DRAM: 50 files for FBPL language printers Maximum numbers of file saved in Flash memory: 256 files for FBPL language printers If "AUTO.BAS" exists in the printer memory, it runs automatically at startup. To disable the auto execution function, follow these steps: 1. Turn off the printer. 2. Press the Feed/Pause button, and then turn on the printer. 3. Release the button when the LED is lit in green. Note: The LED color will change in the following order: TD-4420TN/4520TN Amber (lit)  red (5 times)  amber (5 times)  green (5 times)  green/amber (5 times)  red/amber (5 times)  green (lit) TD-4650TNWB/4750TNWB/4650TNWBR/4750TNWBR Amber (lit)  red/amber (5 times)  amber (5 times)  green/red (5 times)  green (5 times)  red (5 times)  green (lit) RJ-2035B/2055WB/3035B/3055WB Amber (lit)  right/green (5 times)  center/green (5 times)  left/green (5 times)  green (lit) Syntax 1. Download a program file: DOWNLOAD [n,] "FILENAME.BAS" Parameter n FILENAME.BAS Description Specify memory used to save downloaded files. none: Download files to DRAM only. If you would like to save the files from DRAM to Flash memory before turning off power, issue MOVE command to printer. F: Download files to main board flash memory. E: Download files to expansion memory module. The filename resident in the printer memory. Note:  Filenames are case sensitive.  File extensions must be ".BAS"  Filenames must be in 8.3 format.  Make sure to use with EOP command.  If memory is not specified, all files will be downloaded to DRAM.  The priority of AUTO.BAS in each memory device: DRAM > CARD (Ext.
