Configuration Mode
The Configuration Mode allows you to fine-tune the internal printer
configuration settings for your application. In this mode, you can
change the following parameters:
• Printing darkness
• Rest position of the media with respect to the “web” or “interlabel
gap”
• Position of printing relative to the top of the label
• Media and Ribbon Sensor values
• Label length
• Printing method
• Media type (continuous or non-continuous)
You can get a printout of the printer configuration (the values for each
of these parameters) at any time by performing the CANCEL Key Self
Test (see “Operation”).
If it is ever necessary to reset the printer configuration to the factory de-
faults, refer to the “FEED Key and PAUSE Key” Self Test description in
“Operation.”
The ZPL II Programming Guide contains information on instructions
that may be sent to the printer to disable the MODE key and set specific
label format values for each of these parameters. If you are not using
ZPL II, refer to the instructions provided with your software package to
determine if you also have this capability.
Calibration
IMPORTANT: Perform the Calibration Procedure when media and
ribbon are first installed and each time a different type of media or rib-
bon is installed.
