Ribbon Low; Rbn Takeup Full - Printronix T5000 User Manual

Ribbon Low

This menu item defines the Ribbon Low condition for the ribbon supply
spindle. When set to a specific value from the available ranges (25, 50, 75,
100m), a ribbon low message will be displayed along with a flashing ONLINE
status indicator when the length of ribbon remaining on the ribbon supply
spindle has reached that value. The indicator will continue to flash until the
ribbon supply is exhausted. When Disabled, no ribbon low condition will be
indicated. A Ribbon Low condition will not prevent printing.
The options are Disable, 25m, 50m, 75m, and 100m.
The factory default is Disable.

Rbn Takeup Full

This enables or disables a fault message to display for a Ribbon Takeup Full
condition.
The options are Enable (the factory default) and Disable.
Units
This menu item selects either millimeters or inches as the unit of measure.
The options are In Inches (the factory default) and In Millimeters.
Set Label Length
This feature selects whether the Sensed Distance value derived from an Auto
or Manual Calibrate will be used to set the Label Length value in the MEDIA
CONTROL menu.
•
Manual: The Sensed Distance value derived from an Auto or Manual
Calibrate will not override or change the Label Length value.
•
Automatic: When an Auto or Manual Calibrate is performed, the Sensed
Distance value derived from either calibrate will override and change the
Label Length value. If no Auto or Manual Calibrate is performed, the
current Label Length value will be used.
The factory default is Manual.
NOTE: We do not recommend using Automatic when Gap/Mark Sensor =
Gap, as the Sensed Distance derived from a calibrate is equal to the
length of one label plus one gap. The added gap length will provide
too long a Label Length value.
Cutter Type
•
Heavy-Duty.
•
Standard.
The factory default is Heavy-Duty.
