Updating Desk TnT print format for Clare Tester

NOTE: Printer Initialization - The Desk Test n Tag printer comes with a preinstalled standard firmware format which may not work with the specific customer’s tester unless specifically requested at point of purchase. The printer must be reinitialized before any new formatting is done. Printer initialization clears all downloaded files resident in the flash memory, and sets parameters to default values.
