I don't have any information on the internal language used by this
printer, but most label printers use non-standard printing languages.
Given that it uses an inkjet internally, though, it's possible that it
would accept ESC/P2.

Does the printer have a way from the front panel to print a test page?
Usually the test page will consist of blocks of each color, where each
block consists of several rows of short dashes.  If it does, I need to
know how many rows of each color there are, and how many dashes per
row.  I also need to know whether the color blocks are aligned
horizontally, or are offset from one another.
