Intermec Readiness Indicator

The readiness of the printer, individually or as a part of a solution, is indicated by the blue Intermec Readiness Indicator (IRI).

If the IRI blinks or is switched off, the printer is not ready. Further infor- mation can be obtained in the display window by pressing the <F5/i> key. In case of several errors or similar conditions occuring simultane- ously, only the most signiﬁcant error is displayed. Once this error has been cleared, next remaining error is displayed.

The printer will also return error messages to the host, provided there is a working two-way communication. Refer to the Intermec Fingerprint v8.xx, Programmer’s Reference Manual.

Provided the printer is connected to a network, all conditions that pre- vents printing are reported to the Easy ADC Console. The Easy ADC Console is a PC-based software which allows a supervisor to monitor all connected devices that have an Intermec Readiness Indicator, including handheld computers, access points, and printers.
