Two-Color Ready Setup (single cartridge setup)
The two-color ready setup allows the POSjet
the printer for two-color printing. This reconfiguration can be done at anytime by TransAct or any one of our
certified service technicians.
A printer that is setup with the two-color ready option but has no second cartridge in the right carriage always needs
to have the orange colored, plastic spacer in the right carriage. There is an auto-sense feature that attempts to auto
sense the presence of a second cartridge. This auto-sense feature will momentarily re-configure the printer for two
cartridge operation. The auto-sense is performed when power is applied to the printer (not with the * Button). If the
printer is power cycled without the second cartridge, the printer will revert back to single cartridge operation. When
the printer has the second cartridge installed, it should be reconfigured through software, or with manual
configuration, to be a two cartridge (color) printer. In addition to this, the printer needs the following configuration
settings:

Two Color Setup (two cartridge setup)
Two-color operation setup allows the POSjet
the two-color setup does not use the orange colored spacer in the right carriage. Instead, the right carriage holds a
color ink cartridge, and is used along with the desired ink cartridge in the left carriage to produce two-color printing.
Color ink cartridges do not work in the left carriage socket. Use only black ink cartridges in the left carriage socket.
The color of the second cartridge should be configured into the POSjet
Red, Green, or Blue. If the cartridge that is installed is not one of these primary colors, the nearest primary color
should be selected. For example if the cartridge is Orange, the nearest primary color is Red. A printer that is setup
to print multiple colors needs to have the following configuration settings:
Printing Setup
Two Cartridge
Operation
Deactivating the Two-Color Setup (back to Single Color setup)
A printer that is setup for two-color printing can be reconfigured to print using only a single cartridge. This can be
achieved by resetting the left cartridge color to "BLACK" and the right cartridge color to "COLOR READY" using
the configuration menu. When "COLOR READY" is activated, all printing data will be sent to the left cartridge and
the printer will be able to print using a single cartridge in the left carriage only. When "COLOR READY" is
activated, the orange spacer needs to be re-inserted into the right carriage.
