LOAD DEFAULTS

 

Load Factory Defaults

 

 

Sets all parameters back to factory defaults.

 

 

Important • Use care when using this command. All printer

 

 

parameters are reset to factory values with this command. If

 

 

possible, print a configuration label to have as a record of the

 

 

printer’s settings before loading defaults.

 

 

How to select this parameter:

 

 

1. Press ENTER.

 

 

The printer asks ARE YOU SURE?

 

 

2. To load factory defaults, press ENTER to select YES. To cancel, press

 

 

any other key.

 

 

 

INIT FLASH MEM

 

Initialize Flash Memory

RIBBON

 

Set Ribbon Use

 

 

Note • This parameter appears only for printers that have the

ribbon).

 

 

Selections:
