This section provides step by step instructions on how to setup and

download the firmware to the B-419 printer, and to make adjustments to

the printer sensors. The firmware download and the sensor adjustments

will be made from a Personal Computer via the RS-232C interface.

The software for performing the program download will allow the

download of the Firmware (Application Program including Boot

Program, and Character Generator) from the provided FDK, allow

adjustments to printer sensor sensitivity, and allow the download of the

Printer Information. The software will be run on a standard PC and

communication to the B-419 printer will be via the RS-232C cable.

Firmware Download - The Application Program, and Character

Generator are installed into the B-419 printer's Flash memory prior to

being shipped to the customer. However, if specifications should change

at a later date, this software will allow downloading firmware updates to

the B-419 printer.

Sensor Adjustment - The various sensors within the printer have been

set at the factory before shipping. However, it may become necessary to

make adjustments to the sensitivity of one or more of these sensors to

compensate for factors such as different label backing paper thickness,

opaqueness, etc. These adjustments can be made from a PC

communicating with the B-419 printer via the RS-232C interface.

Printer Information Registration - This portion of the software allows

you to download printer information from a standard PC to the printer's

memory. The printer information consists of the model name and printer

type. The printer will operate according to the selection of printer model

and printer type. These data will print out on diagnostic labels issued

from the printer.

Test Print - This portion of the software allows you to perform a test

print from a PC.

Before you can communicate from your PC to the B-419 printer, you

must first copy the "Install Program for B-419" from the three FDKs

provided to the hard disk of your PC.
