LCD Display
The LCD display shows you the current status of the printer.
When the printer is first powered ON, the printerÕs startup screen will appear
displaying the current firmware version and the amount of installed printer
memory (2.0 MB). Once the printer has finished its startup system check, it will
then display Printer Ready to indicate that the printer is ready for operation.
During operation, the LCD will indicate the specific ribbon panel being printed and
if any specific printing errors have occurred. For a complete list of possible LCD
prompts, see Section 9-A.
On LED Light
Indicates the printer power is either ON or OFF.
Ready LED Light
When ON, this light indicates the printer is ready for operation. When OFF, this
light indicates the printer is either OFF or paused and will not operate. If this light
is flashing, a printer error has occurred. Refer to the printerÕs LCD display for the
specific type of error that occurred. See also Section 9-A for a complete description
of all possible LCD error prompts.
On/Cancel Button
The On/Cancel button turns the printer power ON and OFF. It also serves to cancel
the current print job and reset the printer for the next print job if an unrecoverable
print error has occurred. If a card is left within the printer after a print job is
canceled, it will automatically be ejected when the printer is turned back ON. With
the Top Cover open, this button can also be used to manually wind the feed rollers
forward. This is helpful when cleaning the printer or if clearing jammed media.
Pause/Resume Button
The Pause/Resume button allows you to pause the printer at any time during
operation. Please note, however, that the printer will always finish its current task
before pausing. For example, if the Pause/Resume button is pressed in the middle
of a printing pass, the printer will pause only after the entire printing pass is
completed. The Ready LED Light will turn OFF when the printer is paused and ON
again when operation is resumed. With the Top Cover open, this button can also be
used to manually wind the feed rollers backward. This is helpful when cleaning the
printer or if clearing jammed media.
