Status Label (Examples) - Microcom 438 Operator's Manual

Getting Started Chapter 3
In the DIAGNOSTICS Mode, the printer is forced to use the RS-232 port at 115,200 baud.
The normal Soft Switch settings are ignored, and factory default settings are loaded into the
printer. These default settings will remain in effect until the printer power is cycled or a Soft
RESET command is issued (^D32). These are the only 2 ways to get out of the
DIAGNOSTICS mode.
3.7.5.2 Statistics Label
The Statistics Label may be printed either by entering the DIAGNOSTICS Mode or sending
the Printing Statistics Command (^A1^D29). The diagonal line test pattern is also used to
show thermal dots that have expired on the printhead. These areas will appear as vertical
lines in the test pattern printout.
