PRINTFEED (PF)<br />
Chapter 2 Program Instructions<br />
Field of Application Statement for printing and feeding out one or a specified number of<br />
labels, tickets, tags or portions of strip, according to the printer's setup.<br />
Syntax PRINTFEED|PF []<br />
is, optionally, the number of copies to be printed.<br />
Remarks The PRINTFEED statement is used for printing labels etc. Each time a<br />
PRINTFEED statement, without any appending value, is executed, one new<br />
copy will be printed.<br />
The PRINTFEED statement can optionally be appended by a numeric<br />
expression, which specifies the number of copies to be printed. In the<br />
Immediate and Programming Modes, the copies will be identical, whereas in<br />
the <strong>Intermec</strong> Direct Protocol possible counter, time and date values will be<br />
updated between copies printed using a predefined layout. Note that you must<br />
never include any PRINTFEED statements in layouts in the <strong>Intermec</strong> Direct<br />
Protocol.<br />
If the number of copies is >1 and LTS& and CUT are disabled (= LTS& OFF<br />
and CUT OFF), the BATCH optimizing strategy is automatically enabled,<br />
i.e. OPTIMIZE BATCH ON. When theses conditions are no longer fulfilled,<br />
BATCH optimizing strategy is automatically disabled, i.e. OPTIMIZE<br />
BATCH OFF.<br />
The execution of a PRINTFEED statement clears the following statements<br />
to their default values:<br />
ALIGN BARFONT BARFONT ON/OFF INVIMAGE<br />
BARHEIGHT BARMAG BARRATIO MAG<br />
BARTYPE<br />
BARSET<br />
DIR FONT PRPOS<br />
Fields defined by statements that already have been executed before the<br />
PRINTFEED statement are not affected. Note that, when using a PRINTFEED<br />
statement in a loop, all formatting parameters are reset to default each time<br />
the PRINTFEED statement is executed and must therefore be included inside<br />
the loop.<br />
The amount of web to be fed out when executing a PRINTFEED statement<br />
is decided by the choice of media type in the printer's setup (label w gaps,<br />
ticket w gaps, fix length strip or var length strip) and globally by the start and<br />
stop adjustment setup (positive or negative). Please refer to the Installation<br />
& Operation manual for more information. The amount of paper to be fed out<br />
after a PRINTFEED can be further modified by an additional positive or<br />
negative FORMFEED statement, either before or after the PRINTFEED<br />
statement.<br />
