DISPLAYED ITEM ITEM DESCRIPTION
CONFIGURATION LEVEL Displays the hardware and software levels of the printer, where:

This information is also provided on the Configuration Label.
PRINTER KEY Identifies the unique key number of the printer, in the form: vvvv-cwxx-yyyyyy-zzz , where:
vvvv -
Represents the printer model number.
cwxx -
Represents the hardware/software feature level, where:
c -
Represents the printer class.
w -
Represents hardware feature level of the main board.
xx -
Represents the software feature level (10 = standard DPL, and 20 = Internal CG Times
Font). Features are accepted up to this value, but increases beyond the range will
require an authorization code.
yyyyyy -
Is the manufacturing date code.
zzz -
Is a unique time stamp.
APPLICATION
VERSION
Displays the level, version number, and date of the application firmware.
BOOT LOADER Displays the version level of the boot loaders.
UPGRADE PRINTER
CODE
Upgrades the software feature level of the printer.
UNLOCK FEATURE Unlocks additional optional features within the printer. (An authorization code is required.)
SET FACTORY DEFAULTS Returns the printer settings to the factory-programmed values (except CUSTOM ADJUSTMENTS and
calibrations); or, if selected, to the Factory Setting File, where selecting YES at the prompt causes
the configuration to be restored.
FORMAT ATTRIBUTES Defines the manner in which overlapping text and graphics appear when printed, where:
TRANSPARENT Intersecting text, images, and bar codes will be printed, for example:
XOR Intersecting text, images, and bar codes will not be printed, for example:
(Default Setting)
OPAQUE Intersecting text, images, and bar codes will be printed by obliterating those formatted first, for
example:
LABEL ROTATION Allows the label format to be rotated 180 degrees before printing, where:
ENABLED Flips the format.
DISABLED Does not flip the format. (Default Setting)
IMAGING MODE Determines the process used to format labels, where:
MULTIPLE LABEL Images multiple labels as memory permits to achieve the fastest throughput. If time-stamping
labels, however, the indicated time will reflect the moment of imaging rather than the actual print
time. (Default Setting)
SINGLE LABEL Images the next label only after the previous label has been printed, providing the most accurate
time-stamps but at a slower throughput rate.
PAUSE MODE Allows for controlled interactive printing, where:
ENABLED Requires you to press the PAUSE Key to print each label.
DISABLED Labels are printed without pausing. (Default Setting)
PEEL MODE Allows the printer to wait until the Start of Print signal is received (via the optional GPIO Port) to
feed a label, where:
ENABLED Inhibits the feed function until the Start of Print signal is received.
DISABLED Feeds the label regardless of the Start of Print signal. (Default Setting)
SECURITY Allows all or part of the User Interface to be password-protected and for that password to be
modified:
SELECT SECURITY Allows password to be set for specific User Interface areas, where:
DISABLED No password is required for menu access. (Default Setting)
SECURE MENU Sets a password requirement for User and Advanced menu entry.
MENU AND TEST Sets a password requirement for all menu entries.
ADVANCED
MENU
Sets a password requirement for Advanced menu entry. (After enabling this selection, make it
effective by returning the Menu Mode to the User setting; see above.)
MODIFY PASSWORD Modifies the four-digit password required when security is enabled. For modification, the code must
be reentered when prompted to confirm.

To be activated, the password must initially be set to a value other than the default setting (0000).
