  • Defines two links, positioned next to each other - to the "main" and "config" WML cards

<setvar name="file.run" value="e:config.nrd"/>
  • Defines that the SGD command
    "file.run"
     should be used on the
    "e:config.nrd"
     file.
  • In this instance, the
    "e:config.nrd"
     file contains a single ZPL command -
    "~wc"
    .
In use, these WML menus look similar to this:
GX series printers can display four lines of text. If you are using a GX series printer, remove one line of text from each “card” to use this example.
