hardware set up, verify the following items:
The printer has correct media (labels and ribbon) installed.
The printer has been configured for the installed media.
All cables are securely plugged in.
The printer is powered on and ‘ONLINE READY’ appears in the display.
The printer main controller has been configured for ‘PARALLEL’ port communications in
user control panel, Configuration Menu.
The print server has been properly configured.
The network status LEDs on the rear of the printer are indicating proper operation.
The diagnostic DIP switches are all set to the OFF position.

hardware problem. If you are receiving an error message in the printer display, take corrective
action by following the appropriate procedure as described in the IntelliBar User’s Guide.
