SECTION 3

OPERATING THE PRINTER

Print Enhancement –The print enhancement feature is used to help the nozzles on the ink cartridge stay open and decrease the loss of the descender on letters such as “y” or “q” and accent marks that do not appear in every address. Pressing the ENTER key will turn this function ON or OFF. The function will remain as changed until the operator changes it again.

NOTE: The Print Enhancement feature will time out after 100 seconds if no media is going through the printer. Once media is being printed it will restart.

Automatic Feed –Turning the feature ON will cause the printer to automatically start the transport and feed systems, if the printer is placed on-line before it starts receiving data.

Enter when head (n) filled – The printer is capable of telling you when an ink cartridge is running low of ink. To use this feature press the MENU key momentarily. Then use the “+” or “-” key to highlight “Enter when head (n) is filled”. Press the ENTER key and install a new cartridge. Repeat for each cartridge you install. When the ENTER key is pressed the display will change to “Head (n) has a new cartridge”. To check the level of ink in the cartridges, Press and hold the TEST key until the “Service Menu” appears. Use the “+” or “-” key to scroll to the “Service Menu: Ink Levels, 100%100%100%”. This will show how much ink remains in the cartridge.

NOTE: The “Ink Level” feature is only accurate if the cartridges remain in the original positions where they were first installed. If you swap the cartridges from one pen stall position to another, the levels will not be accurate.

Setup Menu: To access the Setup Menu; press and hold the MENU key until the “Setup Menu” appears. Step through the Setup Menu items, using the “+” or “-” key.

Total Count – The total count displayed is the total number of prints that have passed through the printer. It is non-resettable.

BIOS Version – The version of the BIOS is displayed in this menu when the “+” key is pressed once. From time to time it may be necessary for a technician to upgrade the BIOS in the printer. When this is done, the new BIOS version can be checked in this manner.

Bulk Ink – This feature is not used. No provisions are made to install bulk ink cartridges.
