Running A Job - Printronix P9212 Setup Manual

Running a Job

Once you have set up your parameters for RibbonMinder, it works without
attention. Normally, you only need to select the RibbonMinder configuration
menu to install a new ribbon, change job rates or ribbon size, or to
disable/enable RibbonMinder.
When you begin printing with RibbonMinder enabled, the message display
shows a ribbon life value of 100%. The ribbon life value decreases as the ink
is consumed.
You can use the RibbonMinder feature to run more than one job on the same
ribbon. To do this, you must know the job rate for each job before you print
it. Then, at the completion of each job, change the job rate before starting a
new job. Refer to your log of print jobs and their job rates. (Refer to page
6–14 for information on analyzing print jobs to determine job rates.)
