Using the DIP Switch (Self-test)
Step Procedure
1 Activate any of these diagnostic tests and Calibration modes. See Running the
Self Test in Section 2, page 63. During the activation of the Self-test, the Printer
will:
• Detect the change to the DIP Switch Settings. See Using the DIP Switch Self
Test in Section 2, page 64.
• Operate the Printer in that selected Test or Calibration mode.
2 Return all the DIP switches back to their normal OFF position once the tests are
completed.
3 Leave the associated DIP switches activated to operate the Printer this way or
temporarily use the settings to test a particular Printer operation. (Note: When
altering a particular mode-of-operation (e.g., disabling the laminator or magnetic
verification), it will affect Printer operation while printing from a computer.)
4 When completed, turn OFF the power to the Printer to reset the operating mode
of the Printer.
• The first illustration (below) shows all eight (8) switches in the normal
OFF
position.
• The second illustration (below) shows Switches No. 1,2 and 3 in the ON
position. (Note: The Ribbon Sensor calibration without the need of a PC).
(Note: Refer to the DIP Switch Settings table on the next page for additional
diagnostic selections.)
