Configuration

After you have installed the media and ribbon and the power-on self test (POST) is complete, the front panel display will show “PRINTER READY.” (If the printer fails its POST, refer to page 81.) You may now set printer parameters for your application using the front panel display and the five keys directly below it.

NOTE: Printers that are operating on an IP network can be quickly configured via ZebraNetWebView(optional ZebraNet PrintServer II required). For information, refer to ZebraNet Networking: PrintServer II Installation and User’s Guide.

If it becomes necessary to restore the initial printer defaults, see “FEED Key and PAUSE Key Self Test” on page 85.

NOTE: Unless otherwise noted, all parameters are listed in the order they are displayed, starting with “DARKNESS.”

Entering the Setup Mode

To enter the programming mode, press the SETUP/EXIT key. Press either the NEXT/SAVE key or PREVIOUS key to scroll to the parameter you wish to set.

NOTE: You may also press and hold the NEXT/SAVE and PREVIOUS keys to quickly advance through the configuration parameters.

Parameters in this section are shown in the order displayed when pressing the NEXT/SAVE key. Throughout this process, press the NEXT/SAVE key to continue to the next parameter, or press the PREVIOUS key to return to the previous parameter in the cycle.

An asterisk (*) in the upper left-hand corner of the display indicates that the value displayed is different than the currently stored value.
