Hi,
As the Hematology analyzer uses the PCL6 Print Description Language it cannot speak with the M12w printer.
The M12w uses the Host-based PDL which is a lighter language and cannot interrupt PCL 6 commands, you may find its Printing Specifications below:

You will need to get different printer model to meet your analyzer requirements, the M203dw as axample is the cheepest B&W Printer only which uses the PCL 6 printing lanauge, I would check with the store for any possibility to replace the printer:
