Parameter Errors
Certain commands require optional parameters. If you do not supply these
parameters, the printer substitutes default values. If a parameter is above its
maximum range limit, the printer uses the maximum value. If it falls
below the minimum range, the printer uses the minimum value. See
Chapter 7, “IPL Command Reference,” for the range and default value for
each command.
Image Overrun Errors
Image overrun occurs when a label is too complex to image for a given
print speed. An overrun will cause the printer to abort the label being
printed. This error is most common on labels over 12.7 cm (5 in) long.
The printer automatically attempts to correct for this error condition by
resetting to the lowest print speed and to the highest number of image
bands, then repeats printing the label. The printer remains at this setting
until you reset it. If an image overrun still occurs, printing for that batch of
labels stops and the printer executes any following commands.
Note: Installing optional memory expansion may decrease image overrun
errors.
Invalid Numeric Character Errors
If you include non-numeric characters within a numeric data string in a
command, the printer ignores them and continues to process the rest of
the valid numeric characters. If a non-numeric character begins the
numeric data string, however, the printer uses a default value for the
affected command.
Here are two examples of valid numeric character strings and one example
of an invalid string:
12a valid
1a2 valid
a12 invalid
Insufficient Storage Memory Errors
Before storing new formats, graphics, or user-defined fonts in the static
RAM or flash, the printer ensures that it has sufficient memory to store
them. If there is insufficient memory, the printer ignores the last editing
session. The printer preserves the existing data in the storage memory.
