Software Default Settings - The printer stores any software settings upon receipt from
the host and uses them until they are again changed by receipt of a command
containing a new setting. These settings are stored in non-volatile RAM and are not
affected by powering the printer off. The printer may be reset to use the default
software settings by depressing the LINE and FEED keys simultaneously while
powering the printer on. This will result in the following default configuration:
Parameter Default Settings
Print Darkness “3”
Print Speed 6 in. per sec.
Print Reference Vertical = 0001, Horizontal = 0001
Zero Slash
Auto On Line Enabled
Once the default operation is completed, a “SATO DEFAULT COMPLETED” message
will be displayed on the LCD panel and a single “beep” will be heard. The printer
should be powered off while this message is being displayed. This saves the default
settings in the EEPROM where they will be automatically loaded the next time the
printer is powered on.
PRINTER ADJUSTMENTS
The LCD Panel on the M-8400RV is used in conjunction with the LINE and FEED
switches by the operator to manually enter printer configuration settings. Many of the
settings can also be controlled via software commands and in the case of conflict
between software and control panel settings, the printer will always use the last valid
setting. If you load a label job that includes software settings and then enter a new
setting via the Operation Panel, the manually set values will be used by the printer. If
you set the values manually and then download a job with software settings, the
software settings will be used.
