Configuration Label
Initiation of this mode causes the printer to print its configuration label and to
begin the hex dump mode.
The configuration label provides valuable printer information including the
firmware version, memory allocations, enabled options, communications
settings, and label-counter data. To print a configuration label:
1 Be sure the printer is properly loaded with media (at least four inches wide),
and that the power to the printer is off.
2 Turn on the printer.
3 When the status light turns on, press and hold the control button until
printing begins.
After the printer has completed printing the configuration label, the printer will
enter hex dump mode. In this mode, all data sent to the printer will be
immediately output in hexadecimal code, along with the printable ASCII
equivalents. The hex dump mode is a useful tool for advanced users in the
diagnosis of problems including communications, handshaking, and label
format syntax errors. To decode this information, the Programmer’s Manual is
an essential reference.
To exit hex dump mode simply turn the printer off or perform a “Printer Reset”
by holding the control button for at least 25 seconds.

Adjust Printhead Pressure
To accommodate a variety of media types, printhead pressure is adjustable.
This pressure is factory set to work with most media types, so this adjustment
should only be performed after attempting to improve print quality through
increasing the printer’s heat setting or decreasing the print speed setting.
When adjusting, use only the minimum pressure necessary for better imaging.
1 Lower the front panel.
2 Load at least 102 mm (4”) wide media, see “Load the Media” on page 10.
3 Print a test label from the host. Choose a label format with content that
spans the width of the label.
4 Unlatch the printhead. Turn the pressure adjustment screws (item 1)
counter-clockwise to increase the applied pressure or clockwise to decrease
it. Make equal adjustments to each screw to achieve even print contrast
across the media.
Chapter 5 — Printer Maintenance
5 Re-latch the printhead and repeat the test print. Repeat step 4 until an
acceptable print has been achieved.
Note: When using narrow media, it is necessary to reduce the pressure on the
outer (right) pressure adjustment screw and increase the pressure on the inner
(left) pressure adjustment screw. This will prevent damage to the exposed areas
of the printhead and platen roller.
Excessive pressure can reduce the service life of the printhead and platen
roller, while unequal pressure may cause faded print and label tracking
problems.

To accommodate a variety of media types the printer is equipped with three
sensors. A dual-position transmissive sensor (for gap and notch type label
media) and a reflective sensor (for “black mark” type label media). Several
media types and their proper sensor settings are shown below:
Chapter 5 — Printer Maintenance
Media types with sensor settings
Most applications that use gap label media will use the default setting of Gap
Inner. However if reflective/black mark or custom notch media is being used,
this setting must be changed.
The media sensor setting can be changed using the NETira Configuration
Utility, see “Printer Configuration Utility (NETira CT)” on page 17 for more
