Intermec Direct Protocol v.8.60—Programmer’s Reference Manual
Chapter 5—Setting Up the Printer
5.9 Enabling/Disabling the Print Key
All printers have a key on its front panel, usually labelled “Print”, which
can be used to initiate a
PRINTFEED
operation.
You can enable or disable this function by means of the following
instruction. By default, the <Print> key is disabled.
PRINT KEY ON | OFF
5.10 Producing Audible Signals
°e printer can emit audible signal from its built-in beeper. °ere
are two instructions you can use for that purpose, for example to give
warning signals to the operator:
BEEP
Emits a short beeping sound.
SOUND <frequency in Hz>,<duration in units of 0.02 sec's>
Produces a sound of variable frequency and duration.
5.11 Formatting Printer’s Memory
By formatting the printer’s memory, you will either erase all files stored
in the permanent memory or all files except system files (that is, files
with names starting with a period character). You can also format a
CompactFlash memory card to MS-DOS format. Be careful not to use
this instruction unintentionally!
FORMAT "<device>"[,<no. of entries>[,<no. of bytes>]][,A]
<Device>
is either "/c" or "card1:"
<No. of entries>
specifies number of entries in the root directory (default 208).
Only "card1:".
<No. of bytes>
specifies number of bytes per sector (default 512). Only "card1:".
A
is a flag that specifies that all files including system files should be removed.
If no such flag is included, system files will not be removed. When formatting
a memory card, the "A" flag must be included in the instruction.
