Correction
Release Hold
32 Automatic retry on a Home Error Enabled Not Enabled
4 Hold buffer when waiting for a
document
Release Hold
5 Hold buffer after a flip error Release Hold
Default:
n=00
Remarks:
When set to not automatically release the print buffer after error correction
(bit #2), the printer does not execute commands until it receives a
“Real-Time Requests”on page156 command to cancel or release the print
buffer.
When automatic retry on a home error is selected, the printer will try to
reset the printhead to a known location, then reprint the line on which the
error occurred. If the printer is unable to reset the printhead, operator
intervention is needed.
An error will be sent back to the system and the LED will blink.
Define Document Wait Time
RS-232 Syntax:
ESC f xyor X'1B66;x;y'
where:
xTime the printer should wait, from receiving a print line for the
document station until the document is inserted.
If the document has not been detected by the time the wait time
ends, a document error is sent to the system. The system continues
to wait for a document to be inserted.
WaitTime=x*0.5seconds
yDelay from the time the document is detected until it is grabbed by
the printer (start of document printing):
vSide insertion - closes the document throat.
vFront insertion - pulls the document into the printer and feeds it
to its top of form.
Delay = y ×0.1 seconds
Defaults:
x=02y=03
Remarks:
Ify=0,theprinter does not grab the document. The operator must use the
document feed button to pull the document into the printer.
Ifx=0,theprinter never sends error status if no print data is sent to the
document station.
