EEPROM data copy
This function is used to read the necessary data
from the EEPROM of the faulty Main Board and
write them to the new Main Board in order to
reduce the auxiliary adjustment items at the time
of Board replacement.
With the old Board installed, use the adjustment program to read
out the EEPROM data, and after exchanging with the new
Board, load the read out data.

Input Head ID
At the time of Printhead replacement, this
adjustment is made to register the head
manufacturing variations correction ID to the
printer.
Use the adjustment program to input the Head QR Code label ID
stuck on the Printhead. (Supplement: Read the QR code label
from left to right on the top row and then from top to bottom in
due order.)

Input USB-ID
To enable recognition of each printer on the PC
side, when several same model printers are
connected to the PC via the USB hub.
Enter the serial number to the adjustment program. The
adjustment program automatically creates an unique ID from the
serial number and is registered to the Printer.
