Verify the Printer Is Working
Before you connect the printer to your computer or
portable data terminal, make sure that the printer is in
proper working order. You can do this by printing a con-
figuration label using the “two key reset” method. If you
can’t get this label to print, refer to the “Troubleshooting”
section of this manual
Printing a Conguration Label
1. Turn the printer off. Load the media compartment
with journal media (media with no black bars printed
on the back)
2. Press and hold the Feed Button.
3. Press and release the Power button and keep the
Feed button pressed. When printing starts, release
the Feed button.
The unit will print a line of interlocking “x” characters
to ensure all elements of the printhead are working, print
out the version of software loaded in the printer and then
print two reports.
The first report indicates the printer model, ROM ver-
sion, serial number, baud rate, etc. The second report
prints out more detailed information on the printer’s con-
figuration and parameter settings. If no second report
appears, there is no application loaded.
See the Troubleshooting Section for a further discussion
on how to interpret the configuration label as a diagnostic
tool.
