'SELECT' Button
The printer has some basic functions that allow operation without an HMI connected. These
functions are accessed using
the “SELECT” button
and
are divided in two modes “
Message
selection” and “USB command selection”
(firmware update, backup etc.)
USB Command selection: synchronize/replace/backup/restore/firmware update
Using this option, you can select different commands to execute such as restore factory defaults,
backup, firmware upgrade etc. Commands are executed by using a USB memory stick that is
inserted into the print head. Please see the following:
1.
Prepare a USB stick in to properly operate with the TIJ printer:
a.
Formatted to FAT32.
b.
The following folders must be created on the root of the USB Drive:
i.
“messages”:
contains the message files.
ii.
“fonts”:
contains the font files.
iii.
“images”:
contains the images/logos to be used to create messages.
2.
Insert the USB stick into the print head USB port and press and hold the 'SELECT' button
for more 5 seconds. Once released
, “SEL” led will blink and you will
now be able to select
the desired command.

(including the files within the folders
