2.7 9xx Series Commands

The 9xx series commands are reserved for printer self tests, factory configuration, and
setup commands. Most of the ^D9xx series commands are not available in access modes
lower than SERVICE level. Commands will return the current status and/or setting if the
^Dxx command is entered without an argument. Entering a question mark ("?") after the
^Dxx command causes the printer to report the commands current setting as well as the
verbose description and help text associated with that particular command.
2.7.1 ^D900)d, s
This command is used to enable the tic-tic mode which steps the motor while reporting the
current readings from the registration mark sensors. This command is available in all
access levels. The Tic-Tic mode reports the sensor data based on the current selected
detection method or outside script sensor configuration. The sensor type must be selected
for the desired operation using the "^D636)" command before entering Tic-tic mode.
Pressing the print button cancels this diagnostic mode.
Parameter
Description
d
s
The printer is set up from the factory to sense proper registration with a wide range of
different stocks. However, it may be necessary to adjust the threshold in order to properly
register some media. The ^D680 and ^D681 commands are used to adjust the registration
mark sensor thresholds.
It is highly recommended that the threshold setting only be adjusted as a last resort.
Registration problems may occur with other types of label stock when the threshold setting
has been changed. The ^D900 command is used to determine a threshold value that will
work for a specific media type.
