6. Programming mode
6.1 General points and operating mode
Programming mode is used to set certain parameters manually
via the control field. These parameters are values for setting up
the printer, the fonts, the print quality, the print media as well as
special and test functions.
The printer is shipped with default menu settings.
All necessary settings for the printer are made in programming
mode. Some of these were already made when the printer was
put into operation for the first time.
The ink counters are also reset in programming mode.
As a general rule, the printer is operated from an address proc-
essing program, from a Windows® system, using a Rena printer
driver, which will control (over-ride) most of the menu items.
Therefore, with exception to setting and “local locking” the paper
size, the default settings of the menu parameters are optimized
for this purpose and do not normally need to be manually
changed. In addition, if you try to control or lock some menu
items, this will cause erratic printing and un-recognizable images
to be produced.
It may, however, be necessary to adjust some of these parame-
ters in individual cases. Possible examples would be; when using
DOS applications, or Windows® applications using a “text” driver.
All the parameters will therefore be described in this section so
that you can do this when required and can make optimum use of
all the features offered by your address printer.
The section entitled “Menu Overview“ (Section 6.2) shows all the
available menus in programming mode together with their links. It
offers the user fast and simple orientation.
This section is also designed as a reference source for experi-
enced users.
