Ribbon Low
This item defines the Ribbon Low condition for the ribbon supply spindle.
When set to a specific value, a ribbon low message will display along with a
flashing ONLINE status indicator to indicate the length of ribbon remaining on
the ribbon supply spindle has reached its specified value. The indicator will
continue to flash until the ribbon supply is exhausted. When Disabled, no
ribbon low condition will be indicated. A Ribbon Low condition will not prevent
printing.
The options are Disable, 25m, 50m, 75m, and 100m.
The factory default is Disable.
Rbn Takeup Full
This enables or disables a fault message to display for a Ribbon Takeup Full
condition.
The options are Enable (the factory default) and Disable.
Units
This item selects either millimeters or inches as the unit of measure.
The options are In Inches (the factory default) and In Millimeters.
Set Label Length
This feature selects whether the Sensed Distance value derived from an Auto
or Manual Calibrate will be used to set the Label Length value in the MEDIA
CONTROL menu (and the QUICK SETUP menu).
• Manual: The Sensed Distance value derived from an Auto or Manual
Calibrate will not override or change the Label Length value.
• Automatic: When an Auto or Manual Calibrate is performed, the Sensed
Distance value derived from either calibrate will override and change the
Label Length value. If no Auto or Manual Calibrate is performed, the
current Label Length value will be used.
The factory default is Manual.
NOTE: When Set Label Length = Automatic and Gap/Mark Sensor = Gap,
Advanced Gap, or Advanced Notch, the printer will subtract the
Gap Length value (in the CALIBRATE CTRL menu) from the Sensed
Distance value obtained when the Auto or Manual Calibrate was
performed.
