5.2 Vacuum Mode
To set the Vacuum Mode to the desired function, press the Vacuum mode icon. The
screen displayed will show the available options. Pressing “Normal” or “Conserve Air”
on the screen will result in a check mark indicating which option is selected. Pressing the
Enter icon saves the selection. To provide for a more economical and longer
operational life, the Conserve Air mode is recommended.

Normal – In this state, the vacuum is always running when the unit is powered up and
there is a supply of compressed air available.

Conserve Air – This mode turns on the vacuum at the start of label feed and turns it
off when the apply cycle is complete. When operating in reverse print mode or not
printing labels in batches, this will reduce the amount of compressed air the machine
consumes and also reduce the amount of dirt and debris that will be drawn in through
the tamp pad.
5.3 Printer Mode
When using a print engine, the print mode must be set to the proper function sequence.
Use the up and down arrows to select the mode required. Either press the screen to the
right of the text (Normal, Reverse, or Data …) to select the mode and save it by pressing
the Enter icon or simply press the Enter icon. A checkmark should indicate the selection
has been made.
