Start Print Signal
This parameter determines how the printer reacts to the Start Print Signal input on pin 3 of
the applicator interface connector at the rear of the printer.
•In Pulse Mode, labels print when the signal transitions from HIGH to LOW.
•In Level Mode, labels print as long as the signal is asserted LOW.
Caution • Start Print Signal is set by the applicator manufacturer and should not be
changed unless the factory defaults have been reloaded. The printer must be returned
to its designated setting for it to work properly.

Resynch Mode
This parameter determines how the printer reacts if the label synchronization is lost and the
label top is not where expected.
• Feed Mode—If the label top is not where expected, the printer feeds a blank label
to find the label top position.
• Error Mode—If the label top is not where expected, the printer stops, enters Pause
Mode, displays the message
Error Condition Feed Label
, flashes the
ERROR light, and asserts the Service Required signal (pin 10 on the Applicator
Interface Connector).
To resynch the media to the top of the label in Error Mode, press PAUSE to exit Pause
Mode. The
ERROR light stops flashing, and the Service Required signal is
deactivated. The action of the printer is determined by the

configuration selection (see Head Close on page 67).
