Job Sel/Typeface On

change the active configuration without having to navigate the
configuration menu. When pressed, the display reads “Load Config” with
the name or number of the currently loaded configuration. Press JOB
SELECT again until the configuration you want to load displays. Press
ENTER and “Loading Saved Configuration” displays. The selected
configuration is loaded into memory and becomes the active
configuration. Press ON LINE to return to online mode.
• Typeface On . Sets the typeface of the printer. This key requires
confirmation with the ENTER key.
Print Hist. Log
Prints the “Font File Log Report” if a custom font is downloaded.
RBN Low Warn @
This option allows the user to select the Ribbon Life value at which point the
printer will declare a ribbon low condition and display the "418 RBN INK Low/
Change RBN Soon" warning message. The default is Under 2%. See “RBN
Low Action” on page 109 for details of how the printer behaves once a ribbon
low condition is reached.
The values are Under 2% (default), Under 5%, Under 10%, Under 20%, and
Under 30%.
RBN Low Action
This menu determines how the printer behaves once a ribbon low condition is
reached.
• Warn & Continue (default). Once a ribbon low condition is reached the
printer beeps and displays the "418 RBN INK LOW / Change RBN Soon"
warning message. Printing will continue without interruption. The warning
message can be cleared by pressing the ONLINE/Clear button, however
the message will persist again in two minutes. This action will continue
until a ribbon out (ribbon life reaches 0%) condition occurs.
• Warn & Pause . This setting is similar to the Warn & Continue selection
with one exception. When a ribbon low condition is reached the printer will
still display the "418 RBN INK LOW / Change RBN Soon" warning
message, however the printer will stop printing. This is meant to get the
user’s attention. To resume printing the user must press the ONLINE/
Clear key.
NOTE: Printing will only stop on the first occurrence of a ribbon low condition.
Once the user clears the warning message, subsequent warnings will
display the warning message but printing will continue.
