Ribbon End Point
This parameter adjusts the point at which the system will declare the ribbon as being expended. The life
count will always be from 100% to 0%, but if a darker setting is selected 0% will be reached more quickly.
If a lighter setting is selected, the system will extend the time it takes to reach 0%.
Load Config.
The printer can store numerous configurations in memory. This parameter allows you to select and load a
specific configuration.
Save Config
This option allows you to save up to eight configurations to meet different print job requirements. This
eliminates the need to change the parameter settings for each new job. The configurations are stored in
memory and will not be lost if you turn off the printer. If the Protect Configs. parameter is enabled, the
new configuration will not be saved unless the existing configuration has been deleted first. The factory
default configuration cannot be changed. See Saving Your New Configuration on page 48 for details.
Power Up Config
This option allows you to specify which of the nine configurations (Factory or 1-8) will be the power-up
configuration.
Open Platen @ BOF
Some special forms have perforation areas that are too thick to pass through the print station. This
parameter, when enabled, opens and closes the platen when the perforations move across the platen.
When enabling this parameter, you must set the forms length to match the physical distance between
perforations
Slow Paper Slew
Disable (factory default). The paper will slew and stack paper at maximum speed.
Enable. Causes the paper to stack at a slower rate. This ensures that certain forms will stack neatly.
