When a fault condition (ribbon out, media out, etc.) is detected, this setting
determines the level of intervention and the disposition of the label being printed at
the time the fault occurred.
Selects the printer's action, the action required by the operator, and the label's
reprint status.
Printing stops and a fault message is displayed. After the problem is corrected, the
FEED Key must be pressed to clear the fault. The label in process is reprinted.
Depending upon the RETRY COUNT, one of the following actions when faulted:
• If the Retry Count setting has not been exceeded, 'VOID' is printed on the label in
process and reprinting occurs automatically;
• If the Retry Count has been exceeded, printing stops and a fault message is
displayed. After the problem is corrected, the FEED Key must be pressed to clear
the fault. The label in process is reprinted; or,
• If the CANCEL Key is pressed the operator now has the option of canceling the
reprint:
To allow the reprint, press the ESCAPE Key or to cancel the reprint, press the
ENTER Key (the operator now has the option of canceling the entire label batch
by pressing the ENTER Key again
Note: VOID will not be printed when insufficient space exists for the height of the text (see VOID
DISTANCE, below) or if the fault occurred after the entire label was completed (i.e., when the label
reaches its Present Distance at or above the TOF).
Printing stops and a fault message is displayed. After the problem is corrected, the
FEED Key must be pressed to clear the fault. The label in process is not reprinted.
Sets the distance to backup the faulted label to print 'VOID' on its trailing edge,
which also indirectly establishes the font size of the void message.
Establishes the number of times the printer will attempt to reprint a label. If the last
label printed in this count has been voided, the printer will stop and display a fault
message.
