Controlling Printer Settings with the Internal Printserver

If your printer is equipped with the optional Internal Printserver, many of the printer’s setting and parameters can be
modified and controlled via the built-in HTML pages resident in the printer. These pages can be accessed using any web
browser by simply entering the IP address in the URL bar.


The front panel is comprised of three indicator lights, a Liquid Crystal Display and five mode-dependant keys. The
selectable modes (Ready, Menu and Quick Test) and the related functions of the printer keys are detailed below.

Note: To Adjust the LCD contrast, press and hold the

MENU

key for 10 to 20 seconds to modify the LCD contrast level.


5.0.1 Ready

Mode:

Normal Operation (Ready Light ‘On’)

The PAUSE Key temporarily suspends printing. Pressing it again will return the printer to normal
operation.

The FEED Key advances one label, and clears any corrected faults.

Pressing and holding causes the printer to perform a Quick Media Calibration; see Section 5.4.1.

The CANCEL Key ‘pauses’ the printer and then prompts you for confirmation. If yes, the current
job is cancelled. The printer remains paused.

Pressing and holding four seconds will reset the printer and clear temporary host settings (soft
reset).

MENU

The MENU Key toggles between the Ready and Menu Modes. In the Ready Mode, pressing and
holding four seconds will change the display contrast.

The TEST Key enters (or exits) the Quick Test Menu.
