2 Installation and commissioning 2.1 Hardware installation The software is supplied on a Compact Flash card ('CF card'). To use this card, it has to be kept permanently in the printer. All you have to do to install the card is to insert it into the slot in the printer. Note that, for technical reasons, starting with Version 3.00 the Barcode Flash solution is available as Type A and Type B. The following multifunctional printers (MFP) require Type B: KM-3050, KM-4050, KM-5050, KM-3040, KM-3060 All other printers and MFP require Type A. Where differences exist between the installation of Type A and Type B, these are described below. Please ensure that the proper installation is available on the compact flash card. You can use the directory to determine whether this is the case and reprogram the card if necessary. You can do so by copying the right file to the printer. Please observe the instructions in this regard at the beginning of the update file. Please nothe that only the PCL Barcode Flash cards can be re-programmed by the end user. The KYOmulticode card (PCL Barcode Flash with Unicode font extension and additional fonts) has to be re-programmed by Kyocera Mita customer service if a change between Type A and B or vice versa is necessary. Note Please note carefully the general tips on working with CF cards in your printer manual. This manual will also contain a description of where the CF slot is on your particular device. Data and programs for Kyocera Mita printers always have to be present in a particular form on Compact Flash cards. In the case of the barcode solution, these are a number of what are known as 'partitions' in which additional fonts and macros for the status page and function calls are stored for the user in addition to the software. The following partitions are available once the CF card has been inserted: Type A: Barcode Status Barcode Init Barcode Remove KM BC 3.00.1 BSTP STP1 STP2 KM_Logo 17

1. Size relationship of one module in dots based on 600 dpi. Standard value is 3; values from 1 to 10 are permissible.	56
2. X-value for the proportion of the symbol. In the absence of this sub-parameter as well as of sub-parameter 3 mentioned below, the Barcode Flash solution prints a symbol with the proportion of 2 to 3 as standard. As the remaining rules for the layout of the symbol also apply, these values are always only approximations. The Barcode Flash solution always selects the most appropriate value here.	56

2 Installation and commissioning

2.1 Hardware installation

The software is supplied on a Compact Flash card (‘CF card’). To use this card, it has

to be kept permanently in the printer. All you have to do to install the card is to insert

it into the slot in the printer.

Note that, for technical reasons, starting with Version 3.00 the Barcode Flash solution

is available as Type A and Type B. The following multifunctional printers (MFP)

require Type B:

KM-3050, KM-4050, KM-5050, KM-3040, KM-3060

All other printers and MFP require Type A.

Where differences exist between the installation of Type A and Type B, these are

described below. Please ensure that the proper installation is available on the

compact flash card. You can use the directory to determine whether this is the case

and reprogram the card if necessary. You can do so by copying the right file to the

printer. Please observe the instructions in this regard at the beginning of the update

file.

Please nothe that only the PCL Barcode Flash cards can be re-programmed by the

end user. The KYOmulticode card (PCL Barcode Flash with Unicode font extension

and additional fonts) has to be re-programmed by Kyocera Mita customer service if a

change between Type A and B or vice versa is necessary.

Please note carefully the general tips on working with CF cards in your printer

manual. This manual will also contain a description of where the CF slot is on

your particular device.

ote

Data and programs for Kyocera Mita printers always have to be present in a

particular form on Compact Flash cards. In the case of the barcode solution, these

are a number of what are known as ‘partitions’ in which additional fonts and macros

for the status page and function calls are stored for the user in addition to the

software.

The following partitions are available once the CF card has been inserted:

Type A:

Barcode Status

Barcode Init

Barcode Remove
