Menu Language Error Message

Download the generated files to the printer – one method is the DOS copy command:

copy small.ls lpt1: /b

Reset the printer by pressing and holding the CANCEL Key for approximately four seconds.

Verify the operation by printing a Configuration Label (see Section 4.3.2). The new font selection will be printed on the label under SYSTEM INFORMATION / OPTIONAL LANGUAGES or select the new language in the SYSTEM SETTINGS / MENU LANGUAGE in the printer’s menu.

This is the only method to determine whether the download was successful. If the menu system displays the new language selection, but all displayed messages remain in English an error has occurred. Re-check the process. Contact Datamax Technical Support if problems continue (be prepared to provide the Gemmsglst.xls and the DPL download file that you have created). Other possible error messages are as follows:

Advance File Handling Information

ŸThe Standard Datamax Printer leaves the factory with EFIGS loaded into module Y. At this point, Module Y is LOCKED and will only accept additional Language Downloads.

ŸAfter downloading a language update, Module Y is left UNLOCKED until the printer is reset or power is cycled. In this state, Module Y will accept font, image and label format downloads. The module will also honor the Clear Module request. Therefore, following an update it is recommended that a reset be performed to lock the module; otherwise, a software package may ‘Clear All Modules’ thus destroying the new menu language(s).

ŸModule Y can be UNLOCKED by sending this DPL string: <STX>KpY0.
