	figuration label using the “two key reset” method. If you

	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.
