LCD Display

The LCD display shows you the current status of the printer.

When the printer is first powered ON, the printerÕs startup screen will appear displaying the current firmware version and the amount of installed printer memory (2.0 MB). Once the printer has finished its startup system check, it will then display Printer Ready to indicate that the printer is ready for operation. During operation, the LCD will indicate the specific ribbon panel being printed and if any specific printing errors have occurred. For a complete list of possible LCD prompts, see Section 9-A.

On LED Light

Indicates the printer power is either ON or OFF.

Ready LED Light

When ON, this light indicates the printer is ready for operation. When OFF, this light indicates the printer is either OFF or paused and will not operate. If this light is flashing, a printer error has occurred. Refer to the printerÕs LCD display for the specific type of error that occurred. See also Section 9-A for a complete description of all possible LCD error prompts.

On/Cancel Button

The On/Cancel button turns the printer power ON and OFF. It also serves to cancel the current print job and reset the printer for the next print job if an unrecoverable print error has occurred. If a card is left within the printer after a print job is canceled, it will automatically be ejected when the printer is turned back ON. With the Top Cover open, this button can also be used to manually wind the feed rollers forward. This is helpful when cleaning the printer or if clearing jammed media.

Pause/Resume Button

The Pause/Resume button allows you to pause the printer at any time during operation. Please note, however, that the printer will always finish its current task before pausing. For example, if the Pause/Resume button is pressed in the middle of a printing pass, the printer will pause only after the entire printing pass is completed. The Ready LED Light will turn OFF when the printer is paused and ON again when operation is resumed. With the Top Cover open, this button can also be used to manually wind the feed rollers backward. This is helpful when cleaning the printer or if clearing jammed media.
