System Settings (continued)

SET FACTORY DEFAULTS

Parameters in this menu listing with the

 

 

‘—’ symbol are the designated defaults.

 

SET FACTORY DEFAULTS

Overwrite the current settings with the

 

 

factory default settings or, if selected, will

 

 

restore the Factory Setting File.

 

 

 

 

; Note: The reset will be automatic. If no Factory

 

 

 

Setting File is used, all menu settings will be

 

 

 

restored except CUSTOM ADJUSTMENTS, and

 

 

 

the media and ribbon sensor calibrations.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FORMAT ATTRIBUTES

Affects the manner in which overlapping

 

 

text and graphics are treated as the label is

 

 

printed. Consult the I &

W Class

 

 

Programmer’s Manual for details.

 

TRANSPARENT

Intersecting text strings, images, and bar

 

 

codes will not be printed. (An odd number

 

 

of overlapping objects will print.)

 

—XOR

Intersecting text strings, images, and bar

 

 

codes print on top of one another.

 

OPAQUE

Interacting text strings, images, and bar

 

 

codes are obliterated by those formatted

 

 

last. Each character cell is

treated as

 

 

opaque.

 

 

 

 

IMAGING MODE

Instructs the printer whether to pre-image

 

 

the label format.

 

 

 

 

; Note: This selection can affect the accuracy of

 

 

 

time-stamped labels and label throughput.

 

 

 

 

 

—MULTIPLE LABEL

The printer images multiple labels as

 

 

memory permits, achieving the fastest

 

 

throughput; however, if time-stamping, the

 

 

time will reflect the moment the label is

 

 

imaged rather than when actually printed.

 

SINGLE LABEL

The printer images the next label only after

 

 

the previous label has been successfully

 

 

printed. Single processing provides time-

 

 

stamps that are more accurate, but it slows

 

 

label throughput time.
