Chapter 3 - Extended Commands Tone (#T) The Tone extended command (#T) makes the computer play its default \\windows\critical.wav file. Playback volume is determined by the current audio settings on the computer. You can change this tone by replacing the critical.wav file on the Intermec computer with a sound file that produces a different tone on playback. The new file must also be named critical.wav and must be placed in the Windows directory.

In this example, b
indicates a 1-byte space.
Control Character Sequence Method
This is the same example using the control character sequence method. You do not
need to clear the screen or move the cursor because the print command executes in
