Lets the printer start printing the upper part of a label (up to a specified dot row) while the remaining fields are still being formatted. This increases throughput on very complex labels.

Parameters

^SPa - a: dot row up to which printing may start in advance (0 to label length, default 0)

Example

^XA
^FO50,50^A0N,30,30^FDHEADER^FS
^SP200
^FO50,250^A0N,30,30^FDBODY^FS
^XZ

Tip

^SP goes between the fields: everything above the given row must be defined before ^SP. The number of labels is set with ^PQ, not ^SP.
