the applicator interface connector at the rear of the printer.
•In Pulse Mode, labels print when the signal transitions from HIGH to LOW.
•In Level Mode, labels print as long as the signal is asserted LOW.

MODE
Resynch Mode
This parameter determines how the printer reacts if the label synchronization is lost and the
label top is not where expected.
• Feed Mode—If the label top is not where expected, the printer feeds a blank label
to find the label top position.
• Error Mode—If the label top is not where expected, the printer stops, enters Pause
Mode, displays the message

, flashes the
ERROR light, and asserts the Service Required signal (pin 10 on the Applicator
Interface Connector).

Mode. The
ERROR light stops flashing, and the Service Required signal is
deactivated. The action of the printer is determined by the
