Chapter 5—Setting Up the Printer
5.14 Rebooting the Printer
As an alternative to cycling the power to the printer using the On/Off
switch, you can issue a
REBOOT
instruction. Any data or layout in the
temporary memory, that has not been saved to the permanent memory,
will be deleted and the buffers will be emptied.
REBOOT
Note:
Counters, time and date formats, separators, and error
messages will be lost and a number of instructions will be reset
to default.
5.15 Setting the Verbosity Level
°e verbosity level controls the amount of information to be returned
from print to host:
SYSVAR (18) = <value>
<value> = -1
All levels enabled
<value> = 0
No verbosity (default)
<value> = 1
Echo received characters
<value> = 2
“Ok” after correct command lines
<value> = 4
Echo input characters from communication port
<value> = 8
Error after failed line
Bits can be combined, so for example SYSVAR(18)=3 means both “Echo
received characters” and “Ok after correct command lines”.
5.16 Selecting Type of Error Message
Four types of error messages can be selected:
SYSVAR (19) = <value>
<value> = 1
<string> in line <line no.>, for example “Invalid font in line 10” (default)
<value> = 2
Error <number> in line <line no.>: <string>, for example “Error 19 in line
10: Invalid font”
<value> = 3
E<number>, for example“E19”
<value> = 4
Error <number> in line <line number>, for example “Error 19 in line 10”
