Lcd Panel Printer Configuration - SATO M10e Operation Manual

Section 3. Configuration

LCD PANEL PRINTER CONFIGURATION

The LCD Panel is used by the operator in conjunction with the LINE and FEED switches to
manually enter printer configuration settings. Many of these settings can also be controlled
via software commands and in the case of conflict between software and control panel
settings, the printer will always use the last valid setting. If you load a label job that includes
software settings and then enter a new setting via the LCD panel, the manually set values will
be used by the printer. If you set the values manually and then download a job with software
settings, the software settings will be used.
There are seven modes of operation. To enter the desired mode, the KEY SEQUENCE
combination listed in the table below must be performed. The initial LCD display message is
shown for each mode.
