Temp − this reading is the feedback voltage of the printhead thermistor. At
power up or in an idle condition, this value should be in the range of 060 to
065. A reading of 175 is high and could
decrease the life of the printhead. An average amount of printing will give
readings that range from 070 to 120.
Pot − this reading comes from the darkness potentiometer located on the
front panel board. It will vary from 000 (darkest) to 255 (lightest). Adjust
this value for a midrange value of 128.
TOFA − (Top of Form Adjustment) determines where the first position of
print begins on the label.
RIBN − this value indicates the operation of the ribbon mechanism, this
value will vary.
RWND − this value indicates the operation of the internal rewind
mechanism, this value will vary.
Counter Information − is the values and dates of the absolute and
resettable counters.
