Display. When DISPLAY is selected, the ribbon ink consumption will
continually display on the control panel, decrementing as ink is
consumed. When the ribbon life reaches 0%, the message RIBBON INK
OUT/CHANGE RIBBON displays on the control panel, but the printer
continues to accept new print jobs. No other indication (no flashing light,
or warning beep) is given. Clear the display by replacing the ribbon when
NEW RIBBON DETECT is enabled.
•
Fault immediate. When FAULT IMMED. mode is selected, and the
ribbon life reaches 0%, the message RIBBON INK OUT/CHANGE
RIBBON displays on the control panel, and the printer stops and goes Off
Line. To complete the job in progress, the user must press On Line. This
allows the printer to continue printing for approximately two minutes. After
two minutes, the printer goes Off Line again, the RIBBON INK OUT/
CHANGE RIBBON display appears, and the printer status indicator
flashes. Clear the display by (1) replacing the ribbon when NEW RIBBON
DETECT is enabled, or (2) pressing the CLEAR key on the control panel.
If the CLEAR key is pressed, the message re-appears after approximately
2 minutes.
•
Fault paper out. When FAULT PAPER OUT mode is selected, and the
ribbon life reaches 5%, the printer continues to accept new print jobs until
the printer runs out of paper. When an END OF FORMS/LOAD FORMS
condition is cleared (paper is loaded), then the RIBBON INK LOW/
CHANGE RIBBON message appears and the printer status indicator
flashes. The printer will not accept new print jobs until the ribbon is
changed and the Ribbon Minder is reset to 100%.
In this mode, the Ribbon Minder is automatically reset when a “clean
hands” ribbon is installed and NEW RIBBON DETECT is enabled. If
another type of ribbon is used, the User must reset the Ribbon Minder
using the New Ribbon menu selection.
