MENU Slew Speed Ctrl Automatic* Print Direction Head First* Tear-Off Time 01.0 seconds* Label Missing Fault Disable* Clip Page Enable* Fault Reprint Enable* Display Ribbon Enable* Unit 4: Printer Configuration USER MODE (TABLE 4-1) DESCRIPTION Allows selection of the manner of determining the speed of media movement during non-print activity. • Automatic - always the same as the print speed. • Manual - allows the slew speed to be set. Selecting this option brings up another menu that allows a speed range from 2 to 10 ips. The factory default is 6 ips, but the maximum slew speed is also determined by theprinter model. Determines basic print image orientation. • Head First - the edge of the image that has been determined to be the top will be printed first. In the case of a portait, the head will print and exit the printer first. • Foot First - the edge of the image that has been determined to be the bottom will be printed first. In the case of a portrait, the head will be printed and exit the printer last. Note: This feature will not change the orientation of any test patterns in the DIAGNOSTIC mode. Allows specification of the number of seconds after the buffer is empty that the printer will wait before it advances media to the tear bar position. This is applicable when Media Handling is set to Tear-Off Strip or Continuous mode and Continuous mode is set Tear-strip Full. The allowed range is .1 to 60.0 seconds and the factory default is 1.0 seconds. Allows a label to be detected at the tear bar for the Peel-Off Media mode. • Fault Disable - factory default. The printer does not generate a fault condition if a missing label is encountered. • Fault Enable - the printer generates a fault condition if a missing label is encountered. Determines how the printer handles images that are too large for one physical page length when using gap or black mark media. • Enable - factory default. When the user selected page length is greater than the physical page length, the printer clips the excess data to fit the physical page and the excess data is lost. The media sensor consequently looks for the gap, notch, hole, or black mark and when detected, uses it as the top-of-form position for the next label. Any remaining data is clipped from the label being printed. • Disable - when the user selected page length is greater than the physical page length dictated by the gap, notch, hole, or black mark on media, the printer continues to print the remaing excess data onto the next physicla page. The media sensor looks for the gap, notch, hole, or black mark only after the media has advanced the distance specified by the label length value in the Media Setup menu or by the Host Forms Length value sent by via the software. Any gaps, notches, holes, or black marks that exist prior to reaching the Label Length or Host Forms Length are ignored. Note: When Disable is selected, media sensing reliability can be improved, but the correct label length value must be entered. If the value is too long, the printer will ignore the actual gap or mark it needs to detect. When gap sensing is used, the Label Length value is equal to the physical length of a die-cut or removable label. When eye-mark sensing is used, the Label Length value is the physical distance from the leading edge of one eye-mark to the leading edge of the next. This menu option determines how the printer handles data that was printing when an error occurred. • Disable - factory default. Will not reprint a label affected by an error condition. • Enable - Will reprint a label affected by an error condition. When enabled and the printer is online, 1 to 4 asterisks will display on the LCD indicating the approximate amount of ribbon remaining on the supply spindle. **** = full to 3/4 full, *** = 1/2 to 3/4 full, ** = 1/4 to 1/2 full, * = 1/8 to 1/4 full. Enable is the factory default. GL408-412e Operator Manual 4-25 PN: 9001163A
