XX% / Change RBN Soon" warning message. The default is Under 2%. See

low condition is reached.
The values are Under 2% (default), Under 5%, Under 10%, Under 20%, and

RBN Low Action

This menu determines how the printer behaves once a ribbon low condition is
reached.
Warn & Continue (default). Once a ribbon low condition is reached the
printer beeps and displays the "RIBBON UNDER XX% / Change RBN
Soon" warning message. Printing will continue without interruption. The
warning message can be cleared by pressing the ONLINE/Clear button,
however the message will persist again in two minutes. This action will
continue until a ribbon out (ribbon life reaches 0%) condition occurs.
Warn & Pause. This setting is similar to the Warn & Continue selection
with one exception. When a ribbon low condition is reached the printer will
still display the "RIBBON UNDER XX%/Change RBN Soon" warning
message, however the printer will stop printing. This is meant to get the
user's attention. To resume printing the user must press the ONLINE/
Clear key.
NOTE: Printing will only stop on the first occurrence of a ribbon low condition.
Once the user clears the warning message, subsequent warnings will
display the warning message but printing will continue.
