6.8 INFORMATION MODE
6.8.1 Outline of the Information Mode
In the information mode, the total feed amount counted during feed and printing operations is displayed on
the LCD in units of centimeter and inch, and printed on request.
The feed amount is counted at the end of feed or printing, and saved in the non-volatile memory.
Notes:
1. The effective range of the feed amount
(*1)
is as follows. When the feed amount exceeds the effective
range, the maximum value will be saved.
In unit of centimeter: 0 to 320000000
In unit of inch:
0.0 to 125984251.9
2. In the following cases, feed or printing is not counted in this feed amount
(*1)
.
Reverse feed, forward feed to the strip position, pre-strip feed, auto forward feed, void printing on RFID
media, RFID tag position adjustment command (@003 command), pre-reverse feed when an
expansion I/O device is connected, printing in offline (such as diag. test print, maintenance counter
print, test print, and dump), printing in the information mode, feed for manual threshold setting,
automatic calibration, and RFID calibration
3. Since the feed amount
(*1)
is counted based on the label pitch specified by the command, a large margin
of error may be generated if the command-specified label pitch differs from the actually-measured label
pitch.
4. Since the counted feed amount is saved in the non-volatile memory (EEPROM), replacement of the
EEPROM is prohibited. (Except for the case the Main PC board is replaced with a service part.)
