+; Malyan - M100, M200, M310, M320, MA10, and MA10 Mini

+; If when printing this file it does not show as completed on the
+; display but the fan pulsed on and off a few times then the invert
+; command was successfully ran and saved. You can turn the printer
+; off and on to make sure the setting was saved.
