About Line-Breaks Line-breaks in Linux-based systems are represented as LF (ASCII 10). This is different from Windows-based systems, which use CR (ASCII 13) + LF (ASCII 10) to represent line-breaks. A C# application developed for both Windows and Linux systems may get the property value for Environment.NewLine, which returns "\n" on the printer and "\r\n" on Windows systems. View the Printer Image Buffer The current label buffer content (typically the last label printed) is stored in the printer. 1 Open a web browser. 2 In the URL field, type: http:///printer/label.png 3 Press Enter. The label appears in the browser. Printer LCD Considerations When selecting a font size for displaying text on the printer LCD screen, make sure you select a size that is easily readable. Certain smaller font sizes or color combinations may be difficult to read. The LCD screen dimensions for the printers are: • PMx3 printers: 240 pixels wide by 320 pixels high • PC-series printers: 314 pixels wide by 234 pixels high Printer Keypad Information PM-series printers with a full numeric keypad generate duplicate key events for keys with double functions (such as for the numeral "8", which is also "arrow up"). For a list of all key codes, see the Smart Printing API Reference. The keypad options for the printers are: • PMx3 printers: 1-button or full numeric keypad • PC-series printers: 1-button or navigational keypad About Accessory Support Support for certain API classes depends on the accessories installed on the printer. For example, the Communication.IndustrialInterface class requires a physical Industrial Interface board in the printer, and only the PM-series printers support this accessory.
