Defining Validator Options
A number of validator options which define specific parameters for
certain print jobs can be set from the printer configuration menu.
Setting Number of Bar Codes on a Form
You can define how many bar codes the validator should expect on
a form. This setting is required when bar codes are produced as a
part of a larger bitmapped image. When set to a specific number,
the printer checks after a form has printed and passed the validator
and determines if it has received an analysis report for each bar
code. If the printer does not have as many reports as it expects, it
assumes a gross bar code failure.
When Auto (the default) is selected, the printer only expects as
many bar code analyses as bar codes printed using printer bar
code commands defined by the host software.
