Attach The Power/Data Cable To The Validator

Enable The Validator

Later version software can automatically detect the validator. When the printer is powered up with the validator installed, the VALIDATOR menu appears and Validator Funct. is automatically set to Enable in the QUICK SETUP and VALIDATOR menus.

NOTE: You may need to load the Factory Config. in the CONFIG

CTRL menu to allow the VALIDATOR menu to appear.

With earlier software that cannot automatically detect the validator, the default value for Validator Funct. is Disable so that printers without validators do not stop and wait for the validator at boot up. These printers with validators installed need to have Validation Funct. set to Enable. This is a one-time setting if the save configuration command is issued.
