FAULT HANDLING Determines the intervention required and the disposition of the label in process
when a fault occurs, where:
LEVEL Selects the user action and the reprint status upon declaration of a fault, where:
NO REPRINT Printing stops and a fault message is displayed. Following correction of the
problem, the FEED Key must be pressed to clear the fault, but the label in process
is not reprinted.
STANDARD Printing stops and a fault message is displayed. Following correction of the
problem, the FEED Key must be pressed to clear the fault then the label in process
is reprinted. (Default Setting.)
VOID AND
RETRY
Depending upon the RETRY COUNT (see below), one of the following occurs:
If the count has not been exceeded, VOID is printed (see VOID DISTANCE) on the
failed label and reprinting automatically occurs;
If the count has been exceeded, printing stops and a fault message is displayed.
Following correction of the problem, the FEED Key must be pressed to clear the
fault before the label in process is reprinted; or,
If the CANCEL Key is pressed, reprinting is optional: to reprint press NO; or, to
cancel the reprint press YES (and press YES again to cancel the batch.)
;
(1) With no Linear Scanner attached, the printer will perform in
the STANDARD setting, except that VOID will be printed on the
faulted label.
(2) VOID will not be printed if insufficient text space exists (see
VOID DISTANCE, below), or if the fault occurred after printing.
(3) The text can be customized, see the Class Series
Programmer’s Manual for details.
VOID DISTANCE Sets the distance to backup and then print VOID on a faulted label, where:
(0.10 to 2.00
in.)
0.50
Is the distance, measured from the trailing edge of the label, which indirectly
establishes the font size of the text. (The default setting is 0.5 inches.)
RETRY COUNT Sets the number of reprint attempts, where:
(0 - 3)
1
Is the last label in the count to be voided before the printer will stop and display a
fault message. (The default setting is one.)
;
Retry counts greater than 1 are only valid for printers equipped
with the Linear Scanner or RFID option.
BACKFEED ON
CLEAR
Determines the printer's action after a fault is cleared, where:
ENABLED Backup label positioning will occur after the fault is cleared.
DISABLED No backup label positioning will occur after fault clearing; the printer will assume
that the current position is correct. (This is the default setting.)
;
If reloading media, the operator must place the material in its
presented position.
