16 Printing Labels ♦ ♦ Printing Labels 2.0 Introduction This chapter explains how to generate labels using several different methods and how to print different bar codes. An optional Internal Batch Cartridge is available for generating label formats using the Printer as a standalone device.
Printing Labels 17 2.1 Programming Commands In order to be ready for a command sequence, the Printer must first receive a special character called an “attention getter” which informs the Printer that it is about to receive a command and the type of command it will be.
18 Printing Labels The System Level Commands are used to create formats, load and store graphic information, and control the Printer. Table 2-3 provides a brief description and format of each System Level Command character. Char Description Format A Set time and date FORMAT: A wmmddyyyyhhMMjjj 16 digits total.
Printing Labels 19 Table 2-3 System Level Commands.
20 Printing Labels Char Description Format m Set metric flag, enter metric mode All references set to metric until reset n Clear metric flag, return to inch mode O Form edge offset (start of print pos.
Printing Labels 21 A STX L Command switches the Printer from the System Level to the Label-Formatting Mode. All command characters after STX L are interpreted as Label Formatting Commands until the Label Formatting mode is terminated with the command character E.
22 Printing Labels CC Description Format X Terminate label formatting mode y Select font symbol set (optional scalable fonts only) y S xx y = ASCII (0x79) S = ASCII (0x54) xx = symbol selection z or Z.
Printing Labels 23 The commands used for bit mapped font loading are usually generated by font-creation software. However, the Assign Font ID Number command must be sent to the Printer before the font file. Font Loading Commands are listed in Table 2-6.
24 Printing Labels 2.3 Configuration Command String The Configuration Command String sets the operating parameters of the Printer. The Command Strings are described below.
Printing Labels 25 @ Sets the Printer to: gap (edge) media; no linerless..
26 Printing Labels 2.4 Printing Bar Codes The example shown below prints out a Code 3 of 9 bar code with a wide to narrow bar ratio of 3:1 and can be used to print any of the bar codes shown in Appendix B by altering the example's fields. Refer to Figures 2- 2 and 2-3 for a brief explanation of the data fields.
Printing Labels 27 2.5 Memory Cartridges (Modules) The Printer has one 16 bit Memory Cartridge Slot. There are four storage uses for Memory Cartridges: graphic images; smooth formed fonts; label formats that can be recalled by host computers; and internal batch formats.
28 Maintenance ♦ ♦ Maintenance 3.0 Introduction This chapter will cover the cleaning, adjusting, and some troubleshooting tips involved with your Printer. 3.1 Cleaning the Printhead Warning: Turn ‘off’ the Printer and unplug the unit from the outlet before cleaning the Printhead.
Maintenance 29 3.2 Media Width Adjustment The Thumbwheel on the side of the Printhead Carrier allows the Printhead to be adjusted for media narrower than the width of the Printhead. The numbers on the Thumbwheel do not correspond to a particular media width but serve only as a reference point.
30 Maintenance 3.3 Fine Printhead Adjustment An Allen set screw is located on top of the Printhead Carrier Assembly that can be adjusted for controlling print quality. This adjustment is set at the factory and should not need further adjusting, however with different types and thickness of media some adjustment may be necessary.
Maintenance 31 3.4 Printhead Replacement Removal: 1. Turn OFF the Printer and unplug it from the AC outlet. Open the Top Cover. 2. Unlatch the Printhead Assembly, loosen the Printhead Screw until the Printhead is free. 3. Carefully disconnect the Printhead Cable from the back of the Printhead.
