Chapter 6—Setting Up the Printer

Description

The setup controls the printer in regard of serial communication, media feed, and print speed, and specifies which type of media and (optionally) ribbon is loaded in the printer.

Check the list of the printer’s default setup parameters on the next page to see if they match your requirements. If not, you will have to change the setup using one of the methods described below. The setup may also be changed by Intermec PrintSet, InterDriver, and LabelShop, or third- party application programs.

Setup Mode

Press the <Setup> key on the printer’s built-in keyboard to enter the Setup Mode, or

select the Setup option in Intermec Shell to enter the Setup Mode, or

execute the Intermec Fingerprint SETUP instruction to enter the Setup Mode, or

access the Setup Mode via the printer’s home (requires an optional EasyLAN interface board).

See Chapter 7, “Setup Mode” in this manual and the EasyLAN docu- mentation.

Intermec Fingerprint

Use setup strings to change individual setup parameters remotely from the host, or
