35/37 User’s Manual
Power On/Off
To turn the display on or off:
1. Press Power .
Note: To completely shut down the printer, turn the On/Off switch, located above
the power cord, to the OFF position.
Sleep Mode
To preserve energy, when the printer detects a time of inactivity it automatically turns off the
display and goes into a low-power consumption mode called Sleep Mode. The current label
and settings are retained.
To wake the printer from sleep mode:
1. Press or touch the screen.
The Editor displays the label or menu you were on when the printer went to sleep.
Note: If a label is defined when the system goes into sleep mode and the media is
changed to a supply where the label no longer fits, you will be prompted to make
the data fit or save the existing label before continuing. If you choose the option to
make the data fit, the system will move and/or resize the objects so they fit on the
new media size.
You can set the elapsed time of inactivity the printer should detect before entering Sleep Mode.
See page 19 for information on setting the shut off delay time.
Resetting the Printer
If the screen “freezes” (i.e., does not accept any keystrokes), reset the printer.
1. Press and hold for 5 seconds.
The system performs the initialization process and starts the printer.
If the printer still does not initialize after holding the power button:
2. Using the On/Off switch, turn the power off, then turn it back on.
Any data in the Editor at the time of the reset will be lost.
