Select Other Facilities
As an alternative to selecting an application, you can step through a
number of other useful facilities:
• Setup allows you to enter the Setup Mode to set up the printer by
means of its built-in keyboard, see chapter 8 "Setup Mode".
• Print Setup allows you to produce a printout of the printer's
current setup values (test label #5).
• Testfeed allows you to feed out a number of label, ticket, tag or
pieces of strip while the printer auto-adjusts its paper feed and
label stop sensor or black mark sensor. It is recommended to
perform a Testfeed operation each time you load a new roll of
labels (or similar).
• Test Label allows you to print a series of four test labels (test
labels #1 – #4) in order to test the printout quality and printhead
alignment. The labels are presented in an infinite loop, so you can
print the series over and over again. Press <Enter> for each new
label.
• Default Setup allows you to reset all setup parameters to their
respective default values, as listed in chapter 7.
• Software Update is used for two purposes:
- Update PC-card allows the printer to be used as a Flash PC-
card programming device. By means of the Zmodem commun-
ication tool, files can be downloaded from a PC to a Flash PC-
1
card inserted in the memory card slot in the printer's rear plate.
Warning! If the Flash PC-card contains an earlier firmware
version than the one in the printer, the printer's firmware will
be downgraded without warning.
- Update firmware is used to upgrade the printer's firmware
from a new firmware version stored as a file in a PC.
• Reboot has the same effect as turning off and on the power to the
printer. To exit Intermec Shell without having selected any
application program, use Reboot or restart the printer. Then wait
for the 5 seconds countdown without taking any action, and the
last selected application will be opened.
