Example 5

This example demonstrates a WML menu structure with three cards. The "darkness" card leverages WML and the SGD "print.tone" command to allow the user to both view and configure a setting.

<p>Change: </p>
  • Defines the fixed text
    "Change: "
<do type="accept" label="Up"><setvar name="print.tone" value="+1.0"/></do><br/>
  • Defines selecting the word "Up" as equal to sending the value "+1.0" for the SGD command "print.tone". In this case, this increases the setting by 1.0.

<p>Change: </p>
  • Defines the fixed text
    "Change: "
do type="accept" label="Down"><setvar name="print.tone" value="-1.0"/></do><br/>
  • Defines selecting the word "Down" as equal to sending the value "-1.0" for the SGD command "print.tone". In this case, this decreases the setting by 1.0.
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.
