Status Print
When selecting the "Status print" option, an internal test sample will be printed
which contains a variety of information about the configuration of the printer as
well as status of the printer.
To prepare for a status print, load media (labels, continuous paper) and a
transfer ribbon (if applicable), which extends over the entire print width of the
printer.
NOTICE !
With "Status print", the printer will not sense any label gaps, and will print
non-stop, producing output with an approximate length of 10.3" (260
mm). Continuous paper works best for the prints, otherwise, a regular
sheet of paper cut to a width of 4.7 in (120 mm) for A3/A4 or 7.1 in
(180mm) for A6 can be used in thermal transfer mode.
