FEED Key and PAUSE Key

Press and hold these two keys while turning the printer power ON. The printer configuration will be temporarily reset to the factory default values. These values will be active until power is turned OFF.

If the factory default values are permanently saved, a media calibration procedure must be performed. You must also reset the head resistance value, and the verifier and applicator port settings to their required values (see “Configuration and Calibration”).
