By default, Applicator Port is set to 0 = Off.
This same setting can also be performed by using the "device.applicator.end_print" SGD command.
Format: ! U1 setvar "device.applicator.end_print" "value"
Values:
off = Off
1 = End Print signal normally high, and low only when the printer is moving
the label forward.
2 = End Print signal normally low, and high only when the printer is moving
the label forward.
3 = End Print signal normally high, and low for 20 ms when a label has been
printed and positioned.
4 = End Print signal normally low, and high for 20 ms when a label has been
printed and positioned.
Default: off
