Controls and Indicators
7 • Pause Button — Pauses print and media movement actions.
• Pressing the Pause button will stop print activities and place the printer into a
‘Pause’ state. The printer will complete printing a label that is printing before it
pauses.
• The Pause indicator will display Amber (orange/yellow) to indicate the Pause
state.
• Pressing the Pause button while in Pause state will return the printer to normal
operation. If printing a multi label (form/format) job or another print job is
waiting to print in the print queue, then the printer will resume printing.
8 • FEED (Advance) Button — Advance a label (print form/format).
• Feed One Label - Pressing (and releasing) the FEED button when the printer
is not printing, causes the printer to advance media one (1) blank form/format
length (label, receipt, tag, ticket, etc.).
• Advance Multiple Labels - Pressing and Holding the FEED button when the
printer is not printing, causes the printer to advance labels until released. It
finishes advancing to the beginning position of the next label.
• Reprint Last Label (activated via a SGD command:ezpl.reprint_mode) -
The intended purpose of this feature is to allow reprint of a failed media print. If
the printer runs out of media (paper, labels, transfer ribbon, etc.), then the
printer can re-print the last label (print form/format). The print buffer that stores
the print image available for reprint is cleared when the printer gets turned off
or is reset.
9 • Cancel Button — Cancels print jobs.
• Only functional when the printer is in the Pause state.
• Pressing the Cancel button once causes the printer to cancel printing the
next format in the print buffer.
• Pressing and holding the button for two seconds cancels printing of ALL
pending formats.
