Printronix T5000e Series - Manual (Page 27)

Attach The Power/Data Cable To The Validator
27
Enable The Validator
Later version software can automatically detect the validator. When
the printer is powered up with the validator installed, the
VALIDATOR menu appears and Validator Funct. is automatically
set to Enable in the QUICK SETUP and VALIDATOR menus.
NOTE: You may need to load the Factory Config. in the CONFIG
CTRL menu to allow the VALIDATOR menu to appear.
With earlier software that cannot automatically detect the validator,
the default value for Validator Funct. is Disable so that printers
without validators do not stop and wait for the validator at boot up.
These printers with validators installed need to have Validation
Funct. set to Enable. This is a one-time setting if the save
configuration command is issued.
1. Press to take the printer offline and place the printer in
Menu mode.
2. If necessary, press
↓ and ↵ at the same time to unlock the
↵ key. (This key combination can be changed by the user. Use
the customer’s key combination if necessary.)
3. If necessary, press until “VALIDATOR” displays.
4. Press
↓ until “Validator Funct.” displays.
5. Press + or – until the “Enable” displays.
6. Press
↵ to enable the validator. An asterisk (*) should appear
after “Enable.” Once enabled, the printer will command the
validator to begin scanning and reporting errors, and the
counters will be incremented.
7. Press
↓ and ↵ at the same time to lock the ↵ key, then press
PAUSE to take the printer offline.
8. Press PAUSE again to put the printer online.
