Functions of Msw3 – Msw8 (a = 3 – 8) are different, depending on the printer models.

[Notes]

This function works only in the user setting mode.
The value of the memory switch is specified from bit 8 to bit 1 by b18 ... b11. When b = 50, the status of the bit applied is not changed.
Example:

Transmission data that specifies Msw1, "Transmits the Power-on notice" and does not change other settings.

[Format]	ASCII	GS	(	E	pL	pH	fn	a	b8	b7	b6	b5	b4	b3	b2	b1
	Hex	1D	28	45	0A	00	03	01	32	32	32	32	32	32	32	31
	Decimal	29	40	69	10	0	3	1	50	50	50	50	50	50	50	49

Specifies b = 50 or depends on each model for a reserved bit.
Memory switches set are valid until the following operations are executed. They are not initialized by power off or ESC @.
- Execution of this function.
- Execution of memory switch setting mode by panel operation when the power is turned on (supported by some printer models.)

[Explanation for Msw1 (a = 1)]

Power-on notice specified by [Msw1-1]:

Power-on notice	Hex	Decimal	Number of bytes
Header	3Bh	59	1 byte
Identifier	31h	49	1 byte
NUL	00h	0	1 byte

Power-on notice

Hex

Decimal

Number of bytes

Header

3Bh

1 byte

Identifier

31h

1 byte

NUL

00h

1 byte

The printer transmits the Power-on notice for the following processes:
- Initializing by turning on the power by switch.
- Initializing by hardware reset.
- Initializing by software reset, such as by transmitting Function 2.
- Initializing after the self test.
With a serial interface, when communication with the printer uses XON/XOFF control, the XOFF code may interrupt the "Header to NUL" data string.
With a parallel interface, it is desirable for the host to be in a reverse idle state; however, because the host computer cannot always be in the reverse idle state, it is necessary to enter reverse mode regularly to watch for a power-on notice.

Programming Examples
Appendixes

(∗1)	When [Msw7-1] is ON and the origin of layout is selected to "bottom of label" or "top of black mark", if the printer detects a print position misalignment during reverse feed, feeds the label to the next print starting position.
(∗2)	When [Msw7-3] is ON and the origin of layout is selected to "not used", the printer performs paper cut after paper feed when the cover is closed. The paper feed length is set by [Msw7-4]. In case of the first printing after closed cover, turned the power on, or executed GS V (m = 103 or 104), the printer performs reverse feed to the print starting position before the printing.
