Chapter 9 Intermec Shell Startup Program
Select Other Facilities
As an alternative to selecting an application, you can step through a
number of other useful facilities:
• Setup allows you to enter the Setup Mode where you can set
up the printer by means of its built-in keyboard, see Chapter
8, “Setup Mode”.
• Print Setup allows you to produce a printout of the printer’s
current setup values (test label #5).
• Testfeed allows you to feed out a number of labels, tickets, tags,
or portions of continuous stock while the printer auto-adjusts its
media feed and label stop/black mark sensor. It is recommended
to perform a Testfeed each time you load a roll of labels from a
new batch or of a different brand.
• Test Label allows you to print a series of four test labels
(test labels #1 to #4) in order to test the printout quality and
printhead alignment. The labels are presented in an infi nite
loop, so you can print the series over and over again. Press
<Enter> for each new label.
• Default Setup allows you to reset all setup parameters to
their default values, as listed in Chapter 7, “Setting Up the
Printer.”
• Software Update is used for two purposes:
- Update PC-card allows the printer to be used as a Flash PC card
programming device. Using the Zmodem communication tool,
fi les can be downloaded from a PC to a Flash PC card

inserted
in the memory card slot in the printer’s rear plate.
Warning! If the Flash PC card contains an earlier fi rmware
version than the one in the printer, the printer’s fi rmware will
be downgraded without warning.
- Update fi rmware i s u sed t o u pg r ad e t h e p rin t e r ’s fi rmware from
a new fi rmware version stored as a fi le in a PC.
• Reboot has the same effect as cycling the power to the printer.
To exit Intermec Shell without having selected any application
program, select Reboot. Then wait for the 5 seconds countdown to
fi nish, and the last selected application will be opened.
