created, the software dip switches are temporarily set to defaults. The printer will return to the
old settings, if different, after power down or a soft reset.
The printed labels and total labels represent the number of labels printed to date. The printed
labels and printed inches fields can be reset by the user while the total labels and total inches
cannot. Printed inches and printed labels are reset using the ^D29 command (see section 5.3).
Other useful information on the power-up label is the unit serial number, power-on hours,
previous serial parameters (not the default parameters caused by executing creating a status
label), and the revision number of the Label Design Software (LDS).
The switch bank settings reflect the contents of the four software dip switches that configure
the operation of the printer. See section 5.3, specifically ^D21, ^D22, ^D23, ^D24, ^D25, and
^D26, for more information on software dip switch settings.

2.3.3 PAPER-OUT MODE
When a paper out condition occurs, the printer will continuously beep and the red error
indicator will light. The front panel switch "Line Feed" serves to load and realign the new label
stock. Pressing the "Label Print" button will print a duplicate of the last label printed. The
previous label can be repeated until proper registration occurs. To return to the pre-paper out
condition, tap the button while the duplicate label is being printed. The red error light should go
out and normal printing may resume.
