Feed Button Modes

Power Off Mode (Communications Diagnostics Mode)

With the printer power off, press and hold the feed button while you turn on the

power. The printer prints out a listing of its current configuration (see

Figure 33

).

After printing the label, the printer automatically enters a diagnostic mode in which

the printer prints out a literal representation (see

Figure 34

) of all data subsequently

received. To exit the diagnostic mode and resume printing, turn off and then turn on

the printer.

Power On Modes

With the printer power on and top cover closed, press and hold the feed button for

several seconds. The green status LED will flash a number of times in sequence.

The explanation at the right (Action) shows what happens when you release the key

after the specific number of flashes.

The print darkness calibrates. A series of nine samples print, starting

with the lightest and ending with the darkest image. When the desired

print darkness is achieved, press and release the feed button. The print

darkness will be saved into memory.

If the feed button remains pressed after a 7-flash sequence, the printer will ignore the

button when it is released.
