2.2 Media Width Adjustment To prevent wear on the Printhead and Platen, adjust the printer when using media that is less than four inches (102 mm) wide, as follows: 1. Load media. Print a batch of labels. (Simultaneously press F2 and F3, or send a format from the

host.)

While facing the front of the printer –

Turning the Thumbwheel clockwise increases

the effect.

Turning the Thumbwheel counterclockwise decreases the effect.

Note: The Thumbwheel is numbered for

reference, where zero is the lowest setting and nine is the highest.

2. While the labels print, adjust the Thumbwheel until the image begins to fade.

Over-adjustment produces an image that fades across the label.

3. Then turn the Thumbwheel in the opposite direction until the full image is produced.

Correct adjustment produces a complete image, with even print contrast across the label.

Note: Under-adjustment can cause ribbon wrinkling and excessive wear on the Printhead and Platen. If the media moves excessively rightward while printing, the Thumbwheel should be adjusted clockwise.


2.3 Ribbon Width Adjustment If equipped with the thermal transfer option, the Ribbon Tension Adjustment Knob allows the optimum amount tension to be applied to the ribbon, as follows: 1. Turn OFF the printer. Remove ribbon, if installed. 2. While holding the Hub, rotate the Ribbon Tension Adjustment Knob to match the ribbon width,

according on the table below.

Ribbon Width Direction of Rotation

1 - 2 inches (25 – 51 mm) Clockwise

2 - 4 inches (50 – 102 mm) Counterclockwise

3. Ensure that the Ribbon Tension Adjustment Knob is turned fully into position and will no longer

rotate.

Note: Never force or over-tighten the Ribbon Tension Adjustment Knob.

2.4 Printhead Adjustment If necessary, print quality can be mechanically adjusted. Although factory set for optimum print quality, some media types (for example, heavy card stock) may require a slight readjustment if quality changes. 1. Load media. Print a batch of labels. (Simultaneously press F2 and F3, or send a format from the

host.)


2. While the labels print, turn the Printhead Adjustment Screw until optimum print quality is obtained.

Note: Never over-tighten the Printhead Adjustment Screw; damage can result. Also, if thermal transfer equipped, use the opening in the Ribbon Handler Assembly to access the screw.

2.5 Resetting the Printer To return the printer to factory default settings proceed as follows: Turn ON the printer, and then while all 3 lights are ON, press and hold the F1 + F2 + F3 Buttons until all lights turn OFF.

2.6 Downloading Firmware and Fonts The firmware application and fonts are stored in Flash memory. These files can be updated as newer version become available, as follows: 1. Identify the new version for the model of the printer at http://www.datamax-oneil.com then

download that file onto your computer’s hard drive. 2. Connect the printer to the host and then, using the DOS copy command, enter:


copy filename.dlf lpt1/b

Note: Other programs (e.g., hyper-terminal) can also be used to download this file.

3. The Paused Light will flash during the download. Then, following a successful download, the

Paused Light will illuminate and then the printer will reset. (The previous printer setup will not be affected unless substantial firmware data structure changes have occurred.)

4. Print a Database Configuration Label to verify your new firmware version.

Note: The Fault Light will illuminate if the download was unsuccessful. In this case, a reset will occur and the original firmware will remain operational. (If the reset does not occur, cycle power OFF and ON; and, if the printer fails to boot-up, turn OFF power then simultaneously press and hold F1 and F3 while turning ON the printer.) Try resending the file, and then if unsuccessful check the following possible causes:

• An invalid or corrupted file was downloaded - Ensure the file is correct and applicable for

the printer model. • Possible communications error - Check the interface connection between the host and

printer, ensuring that a properly shielded cable has been used. • Possible Flash memory problem – Replace the Main PCB; see Section 4.3.

2.7 Media Sensor Calibration Calibration can be performed either automatically or manually.

Notes: Before calibrating ensure that the Printhead Assembly is latched, that the Cover is closed, and that the appropriate Media Sensor has been selected for the media type.

Enter Calibration Mode then select the method, as follows:

Note: To discard the changes and revert back to the previous calibration settings, turn OFF the printer before executing Step 4.

4. Press the + buttons simultaneously and briefly. Wait until the PAUSED Light goes OFF.


2.7.2 Manual Calibration If media sensing problems continue after Auto Calibration, use the procedure below. 1. Hold the button while powering ON the printer and until the PAUSED Light turns OFF, then

release the button. 2. Press and hold the button until the PAUSED Light turns ON then release the button. 3. Place media (with backing material attached, if any) over the Media Sensor then close the

Printhead Assembly and press the button. The FAULT Light will flash as the “paper” is analyzed. 4. Position only the backing material (or the black mark if using reflective media) over the Media

Sensor then close the Printhead Assembly and press the button. The FAULT Light will flash as the “TOF” is analyzed.

5. Remove the media then close the Printhead Assembly and press the button. The FAULT Light

will flash as the “empty” is analyzed. 6. Simultaneously and briefly press the + buttons to temporarily accept the settings and exit

calibration. One of the following indicators will flash five times to denote the calibration result:

PAUSED Light = Successful (proceed to Step 6); or,

FAULT Light = Unsuccessful (return to Step 1 to retry the procedure). (Test the calibration: Use the button to feed labels and use the button to print test labels.)

Note: To discard the changes and revert back to the previous calibration settings, turn OFF the printer before executing Step 7.

7. Press the + buttons simultaneously and briefly. Wait until the PAUSED Light goes OFF.
