Position:
1 Clear Text Function: If enabled, all variable text strings will be erased when a
^D2 is processed.
2 >RESTARTED< Response: If the printer has been reset and this switch has
been enabled, the printer will respond with to the first poll by sending the
>RESTARTED< message. If additional enquiries are made the printer will
respond normally. The >RESTARTED< message is only sent once after reset.
3 Button Use: Set to 1, the printer will not allow button use, even for paper feed.
4 Print Button: If set to 0, the button may be held to feed paper but will only print
a blank label if tapped (Functions as a “disable label reprint” switch)
5 Power-up Format Type: Defines the power-up label format. This parameter
determines whether to use a saved format file for the power-up label, or a ROM
format (defined by positions 6, 7, and 8). The saved format file must be battery
backed to use the saved format file feature. See Appendix C for configuration
instructions and section 5.3.7 for saved format file information. Please consult
your service organization if changes or additions to the fixed ROM formats are
required.
6,7,8 Power-up Label Format: These switches are used in conjunction with switch 5
above. They determine which stored format is loaded at power-up. The printer
can be instructed not to load a format at power-up by setting all three switches
to 0. (Please note: The printer will not print unless a valid format has been
loaded. A format may be loaded by using these switches to automatically load a
previously stored format or by simply sending non-stored format to the printer.)
