Error Action

Stop

If the validator detects a bar code failure, the print job stops, the printer status indicator lamp flashes, the alarm sounds, and the appropriate error message displays.

The printer remains in a fault condition until you press the PAUSE key. This clears the error message and takes the printer offline. You must correct any condition that may have caused the fault. When ready, the printer can be put back online and it will resume printing with the form immediately following the bad form and any other forms printed prior to the physical stop (see “Forms Printed After an Error Detection” on page 80).

Overstrike

Use Overstrike mode when you want bad labels to be marked, but not reprinted (i.e., when using pre-numbered labels).

If the system detects a bar code failure, the print job stops, the printer status indicator lamp flashes, the alarm sounds, and the appropriate error message displays.

Without pausing, the printer then automatically reverses to the top of the bad form. It then prints an obliterating pattern over the bad form and any other forms printed prior to the physical stop (see “Forms Printed After an Error Detection” on page 80). By default, the obliterating pattern is a grid of fine lines which clearly marks the label as bad but allows you to read what was originally printed.

In the VALIDATOR menu, the Overstrike Style options are: Grid,

Grey, Checkerboard, or Error Type Msg.

NOTE: Select Error Type Message to see the error message printed on the bad form as the Overstrike Style.

IMPORTANT If you are using an RFID encoder, set the validator Overstrike Style different than the RFID Overstrike Style (in the RFID CONTROL menu). This will help you differentiate between a validator error and an RFID error.

After the overstrike printing, the printer clears the error message and stops the alarm, then resumes normal printing at the point the job was stopped.
