1.10 Power-up Configuration and Self-Test
With the printer off, load the die-cut media (the media must be at least
4 inches wide), and ribbon (if printing in thermal-transfer). Press and
hold the feed button and turn the printer on, (the power LED should
be ‘on’), continue holding the feed button until the media begins to
move then release it. The printer will automatically detect if a ribbon
has been installed and will then print two test labels.
Note: After performing a power-up and self-test, the printer will be
in the 'character dump mode'. Turn the printer ‘off’ for
approximately 25 seconds, then back ‘on’ to restore normal
operation. The printer must remain ‘off’ for 25 seconds in
order for the main board to properly reboot.
The first label printed will be the configuration label, which lists the
printer's configuration and status. Note that this configuration label
shown below was printed from a printer that had the time/date option
installed.
