DISPLAYED ITEM ITEM DESCRIPTION
RIBBON LOW OPTIONS Defines the printer response when THERMAL TRANSFER mode is selected and the ribbon supply
begins to diminish.
RIBBON LOW
DIAMETER
Sets the ribbon supply threshold diameter (1.00 - 2.00 inches) that will trigger a Low Ribbon
Warning prompt, where:
0.50 Is the default setting.
PAUSE ON RIBBON
LOW
Allows the printer to enter a paused condition when Ribbon Low Diameter is met, where:
ENABLE Pauses when a Ribbon Low Diameter condition is detected; the PAUSE Key must be pressed to
proceed with the print job.
DISABLE No action is required by the operator; printing can continue until a Ribbon Fault is declared.
(Default Setting)
SENSOR CALIBRATION Selects the media sensor calibration method, where:
QUICK CALIBRATION Sets the values via internal printer calculations by feeding blank labels through the printer.
MANUAL CALIBRATION Manual calibration that scans media and backing and out of stock condition to calculate the proper
calibration.
ADVANCED ENTRY Sets the values via manual entry (typically for hard to calibrate label stocks), as described in the
ADVANCED ENTRY CALIBRATION where:
PAPER SENSOR
LEVEL
Establishes the threshold for the paper value (0 - 255), where 170 is the default setting.
REFL PAPER LEVEL Establishes the threshold for the reflective value (0 - 255), where 170 is the default setting.
GAP SENSOR LEVEL Establishes the threshold for the gap value (0 - 255), where 040 is the default setting.
MARK SENSOR
LEVEL
Establishes the threshold for the mark value (0 - 255), where 040 is the default setting.
EMPTY SENSOR
LEVEL
Establishes the threshold for the empty value (0 - 255), where 000 is the default setting.
TRAN SENSOR
GAIN
Establishes the sensitivity of the transmissive sensor (0 - 31), where 15 is the default setting.
REFL SENSOR GAIN Establishes the sensitivity of the reflective sensor (0 - 31), where 15 is the default setting.
PRINTHEAD CLEANING Controls the automatic cleaning alert and function, where:
CLEAN HEAD SCHEDULE Specifies the inch (or centimeter) count at which to clean the printhead, and if exceeded three
times, declare a Head Cleaning Fault. (Note that the specified count [0 - 200 inches] will be
multiplied by one thousand, and that zero [the default setting] will disable the function.)
CLEAN HEAD COUNTER Indicates the number of inches (or centimeters) since a cleaning was last initiated.
RESET COUNTER Resets the Clean Head Counter to zero to restart the Clean Head Schedule.
CLEAN HEAD NOW Initiates the cleaning process and resets the Clean Head Counter.
