User’s Manual—SNAP™ 500 Printer 57
7.1 Controlling the Printer
As shown in Figure 20, the Remote Control / Display Module has two rows of
buttons. The top row contains the Start, Feed, Test, and Stop buttons. Here is a
brief description of their functions.
• Start—If batches are present, this button initiates printing.
• Feed—This button has no function in the AVERY DENNISON SNAP 500
printer.
• Test – This button has no function in the AVERY DENNISON SNAP 500
printer.
• Stop—Stops the printer.
When you turn on the power to the printer, the message LED says, “Ready for
Batches.” If there are print jobs loaded on the printer, the top line of the LCD
display will say “BATCH ID” and the bottom line will show the Batch ID and the
remaining quantity to be printed.
7.2 The Menu System
The Remote Control / Display Module has a menu system that allows you to
view and change various settings in the printer. See section 4.3 and 4.4 for
details about the settings.
You can enter the menu system by pressing the MODE key. Pressing the MODE
key repeatedly shows the main menu items. When you reach the menu item you
want, press the ENTER key. This starts a sub-menu. You can scroll through the
sub-menus using the Mode key. Pressing the EXIT key turns off the menu
system.

• If the choices are in the form of a list, such as Print Speeds, use the Yes
and No keys to scroll back and forth though the choices. When the
display shows the choice you want, press the ENTER key. This accepts
your change and makes it active.
• If the setting is a numerical value, such as the Cut Adjust, use the Yes and
No keys to change the value (Yes decreases the value, No increases the
value). When the setting is correct, press the Enter key. In most cases,
the current value is shown on the left of the display and the new value on
the right. When you press the Enter key, the current value will change.
• If the setting has multiple digits, such as the date or time, the left-most
digit will be flashing. Use the Yes and No keys to change the value, then
press Enter. The next digit will begin to flash. Continue until the value is
