Using The Toolbox Utility - Rena MACH 5 Operation Manual

SECTION 3
OPERATING THE PRINTER

Using the Toolbox Utility

Valid for M-Series Printers with Firmware version 20130820 installed.
Once the Printer Driver is installed you have access to the Printer Toolbox (Embedded Web Server).
The Toolbox lets you monitor the job, ink usage, perform diagnostic checks, print reports and run
maintenance tasks on the Printer from your computer.
To open the Toolbox:
Open the Start Menu and then click on Toolbox. When the User Interface window opens you will find a
series of Menu Options you can click on at the lower left of the screen. You can check the Printer Status in
the upper left part of the screen.
NOTE: If you have more than one copy of the M-Series Driver on your computer system; when you launch
the Toolbox, you will be presented with a page asking which M-Series Printer you would like the Toolbox
to connect to. Select the desired printer from this list.
System Status
This area of the Toolbox show the current status of the system. It also
provides details about the hardware (print engine serial number, printhead
serial number) and the Firmware version.
When things are "normal" all lines will be shown in black.
If there is a "warning" or "error"; the effected items will be shown in red.
The "Tilt" indicator will change color; based on the following:
Black = (0.0 to 0.9 deg) Levels within normal range. Printing allowed.
Purple = (1.0 – 2.0 deg) Levels slightly out of range warning.
Red = (above 2.0 deg) Levels out of range. Printing will be stopped.
CAUTION! Do NOT use the Tilt readings to level the printer. The
surface the printer is on must be sturdy and level. If you are getting "Tilt"
errors and you are sure the surface is level; please contact your support
representative. Operating the printer on an unlevel surface can cause
operational issues and damage.
Please refer to the "Toolbox System Status Messages" section, for details
on the messages that can be displayed in this area.
