^KP
Define Password
Description The ^KP command is used to define the password that must be entered to
access the control panel switches and LCD Setup mode. For more information about the
password structure in this printer, see
Password Protection of Parameters on page 54 .
Format ^KPa,b
This table identifies the parameters for this format:
Password-Protect All Parameters To password protect all parameters, send the
^KP ZPL II command with a password for each level.
Disable Passwords To disable the password-protection feature for a particular level and
those below it, set the password to 0000 using the
^KP ZPL II command. To reenable the
password-protection feature, send the ZPL II command with any non-zero number for a
password.
Return to Default Passwords If you forget your passwords, the printer can be returned to
the default factory settings, which makes the default passwords valid again. Use caution when
returning the passwords to their default values because this also sets all other printer
parameters back to their defaults.
To return the printer to the default factory settings using ZPL, send this command:
^XA
^JUF
^XZ
