Creating Labels Using Internal Batach Software

3.1 The Printer Used With a LINK CRT

The following steps are required before you can begin to format and print labels with the Printer.

1. Connect Cables

Verify that the LINK CRT and the Printer’s main power switches are ‘off’. Connect the LINK CRT terminal to the Printer with the supplied cable. Plug in the supplied power cords for the Printer and the LINK CRT terminal.

Note: The Printer connects to the LINK MAIN port, not the LINK parallel port.

2. Check LINK CRT Settings

The LINK CRT is shipped ready for use with the Printer and the settings are pre-set and should be changed only when necessary. If the terminal's settings have been changed since shipment from the factory, follow the terminal's set-up procedure to reset all default values (see Table 3-1). The Printer will set all remaining parameters; however, these settings are not saved in the CRT's RAM. To save them, follow the CRT's "save changes" routine after normal operation is established.
