====== TEXT Set_Printer Message ======


 
==== Description ====
 
The TEXT message is used to send standard text to the printer. Use @FM to separate multiple lines of text. The font that is set with the [[font_set_printer_message|FONT]] message will be used for printing by the TEXT message. The text that is printed will automatically perform word wrapping at the end of the line and at the @FM delimiter. Use the [[init_set_printer_message|INIT]] message to adjust the margins of the printable area. To print a blank line do not pass the TextString parameter or set the TextString parameter to NULL. A page break is automatically sent at the end of the page.

 
==== Parameters ====
 
^Parameter\\ ^Description of Fields\\ ^Comments\\ ^Default\\ ^
|Parm1 - TextString\\ |<1> TextString\\ |"Text String" - @FM between lines\\ |""\\ ||
