7.1
Pause key

Using the keys
The two keys can also be used for other functions: abort, reset, macro recall, calibration)
8.1.1
Abort
Press PAUSA + FEED: pressing the keys together will abort any process.
8.1.2
Reset
If these two keys are pressed together and the printer is then switched on, all of the con-
figuration parameters stored in the non-volatile memory will be cancelled and the printer
restore the parameters preset at the factory (RESET).
Warning – this function must be
used with extreme care as it will cancel any special configuration e.g. applicator,
cutter etc. etc. This function can result in the loss of certain parameters, which made
the product work. Check with the technical support before performing this opera-
tion or performing a reset and try and restore the previous settings of the printer.
The RESET function of the printer can be useful when certain critical parameters are set
incorrectly and which prevent the printer from retrieving data from the communication
port. It should never be used in other cases.
8.1.3
Recall of a macro

Press the FEED key
for at least two seconds while the printer is ON-LINE and the
MACRO Selection function will be accessed. The LINE led and the PRINT led will
flash simultaneously.
2.

Press the PAUSE key
-the LINE led will flash rapidly to indicate that the printer is
