Function

PAUSE

 

Stops and restarts the printing process or removes error

 

 

messages and clears the LCD.

 

 

• If the printer is idle, enters Pause mode immediately.

 

 

• If the printer is printing, the tag is completed before the

 

 

printer pauses.

FEED

 

Advances a blank tag.

 

 

• If the printer is idle or paused, the tag is fed immediately.

 

 

• If the printer is printing, the tag is fed after printing finishes.

 

 

 

CANCEL

 

CANCEL functions only in Pause mode. Pressing CANCEL

 

 

once has these effects:

 

 

• Cancels the tag format that is currently printing.

 

 

• If no tag format is printing, the next one to be printed is

 

 

canceled.

 

 

• If no tag formats are waiting to be printed, CANCEL is

 

 

ignored.

 

 

To clear the printer’s entire tag format memory, press and hold

 

 

CANCEL. When the formats are cleared, the DATA light turns

 

 

off.

CALIBRATE

 

Manual calibration is not required since the 3M printer driver

 

 

provides calibration parameters for the Model 813. For more

 

 

information on manual printer calibration, see the Zebra user

 

 

guide (PDF format, located on the 3M RF Tag Printer Drivers

 

 

CD-ROM).

Press and hold to scroll quickly.
