Operating modes

active when the device is switched on. Print jobs are received via the selected

switched on, set the parameter

Message mode
The device uses status reports to signal an error or a particular operating sta-
tus. This message mode indicates that the device is waiting to quit or for fault
clearance. When quitting, the device switches from message mode to offline
mode (depending on the error and the progress of the last active process).
The status message 5001 (shown above) occurs when for example the de-
vice is set for punched label material, but continuous form material without
punches has been inserted. In this case, the device will continue to feed the
material for a few seconds before it generates an error message.
