Media distance covered
Counted when the feed motor drives to feed,
print and issue the media. (Counted also during
ribbon saving operation and back feed.)
See
NOTE 6 and 7.
0.0 to 2000.0 km
0.0 to 181.9 km

Counted while printing. (Feeding and back feed
are not counted.)
See NOTE 2
.
0.0 to 200.0 km
(4)
Head up/down count
Counts every print head up and down movement
using the ribbon saving solenoid. (Up + down=1
count)
See NOTE 3
.
0 to 2000000
times
(5)
Ribbon motor driving time
Counts when the ribbon motor drives to feed,
print and issue the media. (The driving time is
not counted during ribbon saving operation, but
is during back feed.)
See NOTE 4.
0 to 2000 hours
(6)

Counted when a parity, overrun or framing error
occurs.
See NOTE 5.
0 to 255 times
(8)
System error count
Counted when any error occurs.
0 to 15 times
(9)
Momentary power failure
count
Counts the number of times the power restores
while the CPU is busy after reset.
0 to 15 times
NOTES:
1. Item from (2) through (9) are initialized to “0” after RAM clear.
2. If the print distance is 5.5m or less, it is rounded down and no data is added to the
memory at power off.
3. If the count is 31 or less, it is rounded down and no data is added to the
memory at power off.
4. If the driving time is 27 sec. or less, it is rounded down and no data is added to
the memory at power off.
5. When a sent command results in an error, the same number as the data capacity
of the command is counted by byte.
•
If the media distance covered is 69.4 cm or less, it is rounded down and no data is
added to the memory at power off.
•
When the media distance covered reached to the maximum, the maintenance counter
should be cleared. Otherwise, the total media distance covered will not be updated.
