Unit 4: Printer Configuration

COUNTERS MODE

The printer has integrated counters to measure the accumilative activity of some features. The unit of measure is based on linear meters and includes a print head counter and a life counter. The head counter records the length of the media that has been printed since the print head was installed and should be reset each time the print head is replaced.

The life counter meaures the lenght of media the printer as a whole has printed. This counter would only be reset in case circuitry replacement.

The printer’s Counter Mode allows the operator to view the accumilated measurement and also allows the print head counter to be reset to zero.

Use the keys of the printer’s operator panel to select and enter the required options. Refer to the Menu Definition Tables in the following chapter to provide an explanation of each menu screen.
