EMULATION Submenus
Select
This function allows you to activate any resident emulation listed in the menu.
The factory default is PGL.
There are two methods for selecting the desired emulation:
• Select the emulation under the Select menu option and save it as
Power-up Config.
• Send a host command to switch the emulation automatically (see the
appropriate Programmer’s Reference Manual for details).
xxx Diagnostics
NOTE: xxx is set to the active emulation (PGL, ZGL, TGL, IGL, STGL, DGL,
MGL, or IEGL).
• PGL Diagnostics . This item sets the error reporting capability of the
printer for PGL forms as follows:
• On (factory default). Full error checking reported. Any element that
falls off the current page is reported as an error.
• Debug . Puts the printer in debug mode whenever a form is defined in
CREATE mode. Each line of the CREATE form will be printed along
with an error if one has occurred.
• Fault . Allows you to halt the printer if a PGL error occurs. If you select
this option, the PGL error prints on the paper, the message “IGP/PGL
Error” displays on the front panel, and the printer goes offline. You
must clear the error before the printer can resume normal operation.
• Off . There is no error checking. Graphic elements such as alpha, line,
barcodes, etc. will be clipped if they are beyond the page boundaries.
• Host . Returns error messages to the host computer.
• xxx Diagnostics
NOTE: xxx is set to the active emulation (ZGL, TGL, IGL, STGL, DGL, MGL,
or IEGL).
• Disable . Prints the best results and will not log errors.
• Print . Prints the labels with best results and prints the errors on a
separate label.
• Debug Port . Prints the label and sends the errors to the Debug port.
