Printer Options

Options are offered with the printer to enhance its capabilities and to provide a
large degree of application flexibility. A description of the option complement
is given below. Field-installable options include installation instructions.

Hardware Options

Media Cutter

The printer may be ordered with a cutter mechanism installed (for cutting tags
and label liner), or the option can be installed by an authorized service
representative at a later date. Once installed, the printer can be configured to
automatically cut media after each or a specified number of labels is printed.

Internal Rewinder

The internal rewinder supports Peel-Off and Batch Rewind Media Handling
modes. The printer can be ordered with a rewinder or it can be field installed
at a later date by an authorized service representative.

Media Cutter Tray

This option is used exclusively with the media cutter option to collect cut
labels or tag stock. This option can be field installed by the operator.

Online Data Validator

This option provides the capability for verifying printed barcode quality during
the printing process.

The printer may be ordered with the Online Barcode Validator installed, or the
option can be field installed by an authorized service representative.

Real Time Clock (RTC)

The RTC is a clock chip with internal battery. The clock keeps track of the
year, month, day, hour, minute and second values. It will continue to operate
when the printer is off.

NOTE:

To preserve the battery, the clock will not run when it leaves the
factory; it will start running when it is set for the first time.

Graphic languages can use the RTC values to program fields in labels to
indicate the date and/or time. This is useful for printing production and
expiration dates.
