Preset or Onetime-Set Commands
The SureMark printer has commands to specialize and tune each printer to improve
its usability, performance, and uniqueness. This flexibility is provided through the
use of flash erasable programmable read-only memory (flash EPROM) and an
electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM). Data in these
memory devices will stay valid until it is redefined. This information only needs to be
defined once because it will remain for the life of the printer or until it is redefined.

To verify that data was previously stored in the printer, the system can request a
checksum on data stored in each sector.

Flash EPROM has 5 sectors. To rewrite information in a sector, you must first erase
the sector.

v For logo commands and predefined messages, erasing the sector is necessary

logo or message exceeds space available in that sector.
v For user flash memory, erasing the sector is necessary only when writing to an
address that has already been written to.
v For user-defined thermal and impact characters, new characters can be added if
they have the same matrix as characters already in the character set. If new
character sets are added, the flash memory does not have to be erased. To
replace characters, you must first erase the sector.
