EWS Printer Status

There are three pages on the Printer Status section, Information, Ink Level, and Local
Settings.

Information

The Information page will provide the Model, Print Engine ID, Firmware Version, Printer
Status, and Printed Length. The Serial Number of the printhead is displayed, along with
the number of labels printed by the current head. In addition, the Total Labels Printed
and Total Cuts Made are listed. You can reset these last two counters independently by
selecting the one to be reset from the drop-down list and clicking the Reset button.

Ink Level

The Ink Level page will show you the amount of ink remaining in each cartridge.

In addition, the Ink Cost can be specified, which will then be used to determine the Ink
Estimate in the Ink Usage section below when the Submit button is clicked. The usage
can be exported to a file in .csv format.

Local Settings

The Local Settings page will give you the current settings for the Print by External
Trigger (On/Off), Unit (inch/mm), the four offsets, the LCD Contrast and Brightness, the
Label Gap Sensor Sensitivity, and the Black Mark Sensor Sensitivity.

Aside from the External Trigger setting (for which you must be logged in to the EWS),
these settings can only be viewed in the EWS. Any changes to these settings must be
performed on the control panel or drivers.

EWS Security Setup

The

ColorMaxLP printer has three levels of security. See

Selecting the Security Level

on

page 12 for the list of security restrictions.

The administrator can change the passwords through the Embedded Web Server (EWS).
It is recommended that the administrator change the passwords once the printer has
been set up. The default password is 123 for the EWS and the printer control panel.

required to access this level.
