Configuration Setting to Command Cross-reference

Use the printer's Configuration Report to guide you to make changes to printer behaviors and the associated ZPL or SGD programming commands.
The Printer Configuration Report provides a listing of a majority of the configuration settings that can be set by ZPL or SGD commands. Some sensor values in the middle of the report (1) are used primarily used for service purposes.

From this point in the Configuration Receipt listing, the printout has sensor settings and values displayed to troubleshoot sensor and media operations. These are typically used by Zebra Tech Support to diagnose printer problems.
** - Not supported with a ZPL command, uses the Set Get Do command in the ZPL manual. See device.command_override.xxxxx in the ZPL Programmer’s manual.
The configuration settings listed here resume after the TAKE LABEL sensor value. These listings contain printer features seldom changed from default or provide status information.

The printer has the ability to set a command or a group of commands once for all receipts (or labels) that follow. Those settings will remain in effect until they are changed by subsequent commands, the printer is reset, or you restore factory defaults.
