E-Mask Bit Values 
The IM instruction sets an E-mask that controls how errors are reported on the RS-232C 
interface. The E-mask value is the sum of  the bit values in the following table.
OC –  Output command ed position and pen 
status* 
OE –  Output error* 
OF –  Output factors* 
OH –  Output hard-clip limits* 
OI –  Output identification* 
OL – Output label length
OO –  Output options* 
OP  –  Output P1 and P2* 
OS  –  Output status byte* 
OT – Output carousel type 
OW –...

KPDL Operators
This section describes the machine-independent part of KPDL, Kyocera’s implementa-
tion of the PostScript command language. KPDL deployed in the printing system encom-
passes the features of LanguageLevel 3  of the PostScript command language.
The KPDL operators described in this section can be used for confirming and changing 
the printing system’s internal settings. Most  of the operators in this section are paired: 
one operator for setting an environmental...

File transfer 
One way to transfer a file is to place all lines above in a file and transfer the file to the 
printing system. The ba sic requirements are: 
• Except for SEM 9; and EXIT; (which can be  in either uppercase or lowercase letters), 
all operators must be typed in lowe rcase letters, exactly as shown. 
• The file must not contain any extraneous control codes, as are frequently added by  word-processing software. 
• The file must be...
