Table of Contents > Multiple Copies > Printer Setup > Bar Codes


Printer Setup

To go to the PRINTER SETUP screen hold down the SHIFT key and push the DEL key. The screen shown below will appear. The menu options are: Reset, Unit (of Measure), Density, Auto Off, Advance Cut, Language and Print Speed.

Printer Set Up Menu

Select the RESET option to restore all factory settings and defaults. To select RESET just press ENTER, or to exit press the DEL key.

Unit of Measure

The UNIT OF MEASURE function allows you to choose the unit of measure you want to use for setting label width and margin. The options are tenths of an inch (the default), and millimeters. Select UNIT on the Printer Setup Menu by using the left/right cursor keys to put the cursor next to the word "Unit", then push ENTER.

The UNIT Menu will appear. Use the curser keys to move the cursor to the left of the option you want to select and push ENTER. To accept the current setting press the DEL key.

Printer Setup - Unit Menu

Print Density Settings

On the Printer Setup Menu select the DENSITY option to specify the density (0-7) for printing the current label. The DENSITY setting will make the label darker or lighter per unit of measure. The printer displays the current density setting and waits for your entry. Press the DEL key to accept the current setting, or use the left cursor key to increase the density. Push the ENTER key when you have the density set as you want it.

If the printed characters are smeared or not completely filled in, adjusting the density may solve the problem.

If the printed characters are smeared, then lower the density.

If the printed characters are not completely filled in, then increase the density.

Note: You may need to adjust the density after installing a new tape.

Auto Off

Select AUTO OFF to activate auto shut off. The factory default is to shut off the printer after five minutes of inactivity. When the printer is turned off, all current label text and text attribute settings are saved. All files in memory are still saved.

Press the DEL key, if you decide you do not wish to change the current setting. Or press ENTER to activate auto shut off. When auto shut off is turned on, an asterisk will appear. By default, this feature is turned on.

Advance To Cut

The ADVANCE TO CUT function advances the label material to the cut position. The default setting is to have ADVANCE TO CUT enabled. If you do not need this function, you may disable the ADVANCE TO CUT function by using the cursor keys to move the cursor to the left of ADVANCE in the Printer Setup Menu and pressing ENTER.

Language

The LANGUAGE function allows you to choose from four different languages. The default language is English. The other options are Spanish, French and German.

Select LANGUAGE from the Printer Setup Menu by using the cursor keys to position the cursor next to the word "Language". Press ENTER. The language Menu will appear. Use the cursor keys to move the cursor so that it is just to the left of the language you want and press ENTER.

To accept the current setting, without changing it, press the DEL key.

Printer Setup - Languages Menu

Printspeed

The PRINTSPEED is the rate at which the label advances from the printer when printed. The default PRINTSPEED is unlimited.

To specify a printspeed, select PRTSPEED from the Printer Setup Menu, by using the cursor keys to move the cursor next to PrtSpeed and then pushing the ENTER key. The Print Speed Menu will appear. Use your cursor keys to select from the speed options presented on the screen. Move the cursor next to the desired speed then push the ENTER key.

To exit from the Print Speed Menu, without changing the setting, press the DEL key.
