the Label Width Adjustment in the Advanced Setup Menu to meet

After a brief period, the labels will be printed. (If the labels are not
printed, see Section 7). Referring to Figure 3-11, the Configuration
Label contains two types of information. The first type is printer
setup data. The second is a pattern, testing the print circuitry. In
addition, a special connector can be used to test communications,
see Section 4 on Serial Loopback for more details.
Note: After running the Configuration Label, the printer will enter
Character Dump Mode and must be reset in order to run a
label application. To reset, power the printer 'Off' and then
'On'. For Character Dump Mode information see Section 7.
