Verify the Printer is Working
Before you connect the printer to your computer or portable data 
terminal, make sure that the printer is in proper working order. You 
can do this by printing a conguration label using the “two key” 
method. If you can’t get this label to print, refer to “Troubleshooting 
Topics” on page 46.
Printing a Conguration Report
1.  Turn the printer off. Load the media compartment with journal 
media (media with no black bars or gaps on the back).
2.  Press and hold the Feed Button.
3.  Press and release the Power button and keep the Feed button 
pressed. When printing starts, release the Feed button. The 
unit will print a line of interlocking “x” characters to ensure all 
elements of the print head are working, print out the version of 
software loaded in the printer, and then print the report.
You can also print a conguration report by turning the printer on, 
pressing the Conguration button multiple times until you get to 
the SETTINGS-PRINT screen, and then pressing the Media Feed 
button to print the report.
