Action/Explanation

HEAD TEST

COUNT

Setting the Head Test Count

Press the LEFT BLACK OVAL

key to move to the next digit position, press the RIGHT BLACK

OVAL key to change the value of the digit.
Default: 0000 (disables the test)
Range: 0000 to 9999
The printer periodically performs a test of the printhead

functionality, called a “printhead test” or “head test.” This

parameter establishes how many labels are printed between

these internal tests.

HEAD RESISTOR

Setting the Head Resistor Value

Press the LEFT BLACK

OVAL key to move to the next digit position, press the RIGHT

BLACK OVAL key to increase the value of the digit.
CAUTION: This parameter should only be changed by qualified

personnel!

Initial Value: Factory-set to match the printhead shipped with

your printer.
Default Value: 0500
Range: 0500 to 1175
This value has been pre-set at the factory to match the resistance

value of the printhead. It will not need to be changed unless the

printhead is replaced.
CAUTION: DO NOT set the value higher than that shown on the

printhead. Setting a higher value may damage the

printhead!

Before replacing a printhead, look on the bottom of the printhead

element for the label that shows the resistance value (ohm value).

VERIFIER PORT

Setting the Verifier Port

Press the RIGHT or LEFT BLACK

OVAL key to display other choices.
Default: Off
Selections: Off, 1 VER-RPRNT, 2 VER-THRUPUT
The auxiliary port is used to determine how the printer will react

to the Zebra on-line verifier. There are currently three operating

conditions for this port:
• Off: The verifier port is off.
• 1 VER-RPRNT ERR: Label reprinted if verifier detects an error.

If a bar code is near the upper edge of the label, the label will be

fed out far enough to be verified and then backfed to allow the

next label to be printed and verified.
• 2 VER-THRUPUT: Allows greatest throughput but may not

indicate a verification error immediately upon detection. May

print from one to three labels before an error is recognized and

printing stops.
For more information on the operation of the optional verifier,

refer to the documentation provided with that option.
