  • Page 4: Scope

    1. SCOPE This specification applies to the key operations for the keys and the LCD panel of the B-850 Series General-purpose Thermal Label/Tag Printer. 2. OUTLINE Keyboard operations are roughly classified as the online mode, in which a pause/restart is carried out and error messages are displayed when the printer is connected to the host such as a PC, and the system mode, in which the self-test and setting of various parameters are performed.

    4. GENERAL VIEW OF KEY OPERATION [Power OFF] Online mode Turn the power on. [Online] [FEED] key [Feeds one label.] [RESTART] key [PAUSE] key [Pause] Hold down the [PAUSE] key for a few seconds. [Transmissive sensor threshold setting mode] [FEED] key [Lower reflective sensor threshold setting mode] Hold down the [RESTART] key...
  • Page 6: Online Mode

    5. ONLINE MODE 5.1 KEY FUNCTION [FEED] key: (1) Feeds one sheet of paper. This key can be used to eject one sheet of paper. This key can also be used to adjust the paper to the proper position when the paper is not properly positioned.
  • Page 7: Online Mode Operation Example

    5.4 ONLINE MODE OPERATION EXAMPLE Power ON * This message is displayed while the L I N E printer is idling or printing normally. An error occurs. * The message is displayed when an error P A P E R 1 2 5 occurs during printing, then printing is stopped.
  • Page 8: Threshold Setting

    5.5 THRESHOLD SETTING 5.5.1 Outline of Threshold Setting When a label is printed, the printer detects the gap between the labels using the transmissive sensor, and corrects the print position automatically to obtain a constant print position. However, when a preprinted label is used, however, some inks may prevent proper positioning correction. In this case, determine the transmissive sensor threshold manually by key operation and store the value in the non-volatile memory (EEPROM).
  • Page 9 (12) The printer feeds the label until the T R A N S M I S S I V E [PAUSE] key is released. (13) When the [PAUSE] key is released after 1.5 sheets or more of the label are fed, the printer stops feeding the label.
