Detecting Supplies at Print Time Function

Step Procedure

1

Use the Supplies checkbox for auto detection of the consumables, which are
the Ribbon, Film and Laminate. See below.

In the Firmware, the values (representing the installed Ribbon, installed
Transfer Film and installed Laminate) are updated on initialization
(including each time the cover is closed).

The Firmware compares the Ribbon, Film and Laminate values in the
PRN file to the values (it holds regarding the currently installed
consumables).

If the values do not match, the LCD displays Wrong Ribbon Error, Wrong
Film Error,
or Lam1 or 2 Wrong Film Error and the Driver returns the
corresponding error message. See below.

The following information applies to the Supplies checkbox.

Laminator (installed): The Driver automatically detects the installed
Ribbon, Film and Laminate for every print job.

No Laminator (installed): The Driver automatically detects the installed
Ribbon and Film for every print job.
