3-6. Sensor Switch
There are two types of sensor in printer: Reflective Sensor and See-through Sensor. Users can
set one of them as active sensor. By default, the sensor setting is set on Auto-mode. However,
sometimes the sensor may not be able to detect the label gap on special label materials. Then it
would be necessary to change the sensor setting to other sensor. For example, when printing on
labels with thick liner, colored liner or back graphics, the see-through sensor would need to be
enabled since the reflective sensor may not work correctly.
To switch between different sensors, please do as follows:
1.
Make sure that the printer is on standby mode (LED light is green) and send below
command to change the sensor setting.
Syntax
^Gn
Parameter
n = 0, enable Reflective Sensor and disable See-through Sensor
n = 1, enable See-through Sensor and disable Reflective Sensor
n = 2, Auto-mode
Description
Set the active sensor
2.
Send "^G0" command to printer to set the Reflective Sensor as active sensor.
3.
Send "^G1" command to printer to set the See-through Sensor as active sensor.
4.
Send "^G2" command to printer to change the sensor setting to Auto-mode.
3-7. Dump Mode
When the printout result doesn’t match to the label format setting, it is recommended to go into
the Dump Mode to check whether any mistake in data transmission between the printer and the
PC. For example, when printer receives 8 commands, yet without processing these commands,
only printing out the contents of commands, this will confirm whether the commands were
received correctly.
To enter the Dump Mode, please do as follows:
1.
Make sure that the printer is on standby mode (LED light is green).
2.
Send "~S,DUMP" command to the printer.
3.
Printer will automatically print “DUMP MODE BEGIN”. This indicates the printer is already
in Dump Mode.
4.
Send other printing commands to the printer, and check if the content matches the sent
commands.
To get out from the Dump Mode, please press the FEED key, and then the printer will
automatically print out “OUT OF DUMP MODE”. This indicates that the printer is back to standby
mode. You can also power off the printer to exit from the Dump Mode.
