Explanation
(1) When the storage area in flash ROM becomes full, the old data is automatically
deleted and only the newest data is left.
Only the form storage area in flash ROM can be forcefully cleared by this
command. However, if this command is sent, all data of the stored forms,
including the newest data, is deleted (initialized).
(2) The remaining capacity of flash memory after formatting is displayed on the LCD.
(3) Whenever already registered data (PC saving, writable character or logo) is
registered again, memory is consumed unless a format command is sent.
(4) After a format command is sent, the image buffer is cleared automatically.
Note
(1) Since the writable character storage area is shared by the LABEL and TPCL
modes, writable characters registered in TPCL mode are erased.
