CAUTION!

Incorrectly cleaning the printer will cause permanent damage and void the printer’s warranty. Cognitive recommends using a certified cleaning pen for all your printer’s cleaning requirements, P/N 60-14-00-0002.

Calibration

Calibration is the process of configuring the printer with a specific set of parameters. Calibrate the printer when the following occurs:

Print media type changes

Printer skips labels

Printer feeds blank labels

NOTE: Do NOT calibrate Blazer model printers.

To calibrate the printer, type the following commands in the DOS Editor or Notepad:

! 0 0 0 0

VARIABLE INDEX SETTING 0 VARIABLE FEED_TYPE GAP VARIABLE INDEX SETTING CALIBRATE VARIABLE WRITE

END

Programming notes:

First line must use zeros with a space between each. Second line, for a Direct Thermal printer, use index setting 0.

Third line, feed type will be GAP or BAR depending on the type of label used.

On the File menu, choose Print to send this file to the printer. The printer READY light will flash and a label may be ejected. The printer will not print on the label.

Wait for the READY light to turn solid green. Turn the printer OFF and then ON.
