6. Download the generated files to the printer – one method is the DOS copy command:
copy small.ls lpt1: /b
7. Reset the printer by pressing and holding the CANCEL Key for approximately four seconds.
8. Verify the operation by printing a Configuration Label (see Section 4.4.2). The new font selection
will be printed on the label under
SYSTEM INFORMATION / OPTIONAL LANGUAGES or select the
new language in the
SYSTEM SETTINGS / MENU LANGUAGE in the printer’s menu.
This is the only method to determine whether the download was successful. If the menu system
displays the new language selection, but all displayed messages remain in English an error has
occurred. Re-check the process. Contact Datamax Technical Support if problems continue (be
prepared to provide the
common.xls and the DPL download file that you have created). Other
possible error messages are as follows:
