RBN End Action
This menu allows the user to override the normal ribbon low warning and
ribbon out conditions.
•
Stop At RBN End (default). When this factory default option is selected,
the printer displays a warning message when a ribbon low condition is
reached, and displays a ribbon out fault when ribbon life reaches 0%.
•
Ignore RBN End. When this menu option is selected, it overrides the
ribbon low and ribbon out conditions, i.e., no warning or fault messages
are displayed and printing continues even after ribbon life reaches 0%.
However, once the ribbon life reaches an excess wear condition as
indicated by the fault message "EXCESS RBN WEAR / Install New RBN",
printing will stop and the user must install a new ribbon before printing
can resume.
NOTE: The excess ribbon wear is set below the "Lighter -10" Ribbon End
Point setting.
Perf. Skip
•
Disable (default). The platen does not open at the perforation.
•
Enable. This parameter enables the automatic perforation skip feature
that causes the platen to automatically open between the last line printed
on the current form and the first line printed on the next form. This feature
is useful when using heavy forms that have a large perforation “tent” that
can get hung up in the print station.
NOTE: When enabled, the printer throughput is reduced due to the time
required to automatically open and close the platen.
Power Saver Time
The time interval you specify for this parameter sets the amount of idle time
before the printer goes into Power Saver mode. When Instant is chosen, the
printer goes into Power Saver mode as soon as it is able to stop the shuttle
properly. The time allotted to perform this function depends upon the shuttle
timeout value which can be set in the menu.
NOTE: Power Saver mode will not be shown on the control panel even
though the function still exists. Sending a print job to the printer will
turn off Power Saver mode.
