^LL · Label Length
Label height.
Syntax and practical example
^LLyIn dots. Example: ^LL1218
^XA
^PW400
^LL600
^FO20,20^GB360,560,2^FS
^FO40,500^A0N,30,30^FDBOTTOM^FS
^XZEducational example; not a certified label or a physical print test. Sample text and codes stay the same in every language for comparison.
Expected result with ^LL
^LL600 declares a 600-dot length. The frame ends at Y=580 and BOTTOM starts at Y=500. Change ^LL to 400: these elements no longer fit the declared height even though their field code is unchanged.
What should I check if ^LL does not give the expected result?
Skipped labels do not always call for a different ^LL. Check gap, black-mark or continuous media, sensor and calibration. Correct logical length alone does not fix physical roll detection.
