DISPLAY

This potentiometer is used to adjust the contrast of the LCD display for optimum viewing under various lighting conditions.

PRINT

The PRINT potentiometer is used to adjust the amount of heat (i.e., power) applied to the head for printing. It provides a continuous range of adjustment. Maximum print darkness is obtained by turning the potentiometer all the way clockwise and a maximum counterclockwise setting will give the lightest print.

NOTE: The PRINT potentiometer adjustment will affect the darkness in all of the command code speed and darkness ranges.

TroubleshootingDATA STREAMS Ready/Busy is the hardware flow control method for the serial interface on the M-84PRO printers. By raising/lowering the voltage level on Pin 20 of the RS232C port, the printer notifies the host when it is ready to receive data. Pin 4 RTS and pin 20 DTR are the important signals on the printer for this method of flow control. The host must be capable of supporting this flow control method for it to function properlyCABLE REQUIREMENTS READY/BUSY FLOW CONTROL X-ON/X-OFF FLOW CONTROLGENERAL SPECIFICATIONS UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS USB INTERFACELOCAL AREA NETWORK LAN OPTIONAL INTERFACE BI-DIRECTIONAL COMMUNICATIONSPRINT JOB CANCEL CANENQUIRE/ACK/NAK ENQUIRE ENQPRINT START DC1 PRINT STOP DLEPCMCIA MEMORY CARDS DESCRIPTION SECTION OPTIONAL ACCESSORIESINSTALLATION ERROR HANDLINGPLUG-IN INTERFACE MODULES GENERAL OPERATION OPERATOR SETUPCUTTER GENERAL OPERATION LABEL DISPENSE OPTIONOPERATOR SETUP 3.
