Connecting the Product to a Computer

This section explains how to connect the product to a computer, and how to install the printer driver and the All-In-One Tool.

Procedure for Connecting the Product to a Computer

The product supports various interfaces and can be connected to a computer in an optimum way for your environment. When you have installed the printer driver to the computer, the data created with the computer (documents and illustrations) can be printed to a label through easy operations.

Also, you can print by sending a command directly to the product.

The product can be connected to a computer in the following ways.

1. Connecting Interfaces

2. Configuring the Interface Settings

Set the product's interface from the [Interface] menu on the Settings menu, which can be accessed from the product's display or the web configuration page. It can also be accessed from the All-In-One Tool, which can be used by installing it to a computer.

• When you connect them with LAN or wireless LAN interfaces, configure the communication conditions, such as the IP address of the product.
• When you connect them with other interfaces, configure the communication conditions when needed to adapt to the computer to which you are connecting.
  To use the printer driver, the communication protocol must be set to Status4. (The initial value for the communication protocol for the product's interfaces is Status4.)

3. Installing the Printer Driver (Unnecessary when using commands)

• Use barcode fonts to create a barcode. Sometimes the barcode may not be read by a scanner if it is created with tools for creating images (such as BMP) and printed from this product. Because the tools create the barcode as an image only, the barcode may not be the correct data. Therefore, if the barcode cannot be read by a scanner, it is not a failure of the product or printer driver. Note that reading of the barcode is not guaranteed if it is created by such tools.
• The head check is just for a reference to check a broken element of the print head, and it is not a function to guarantee barcode readability. A regular barcode reader test is required.

Connecting Interfaces

Available Interfaces

The product supports the following interfaces.

• A product connected with multiple interface cables can continue to operate when receiving data. However, you cannot receive data from more than one interface at a time. Normally, do not use multiple interfaces at a time.

Conditions That Trigger Paper End, Label Near End, Ribbon End and Ribbon Near End

Conditions That Trigger Paper End

The conditions that trigger paper end vary depending on the operation of the product.

Conditions That Trigger Paper End in the Feeding Operation

A paper-end occurs if the no-paper condition persists even after the paper-end sensor detects the no-paper condition when 15 mm (0.59") continues to be fed.

(1) 61.8 mm (2.43") (2) 15 mm (0.59") (3)

(1) Print head position
(2) Paper end sensor: I-mark sensor/Gap sensor

Select in [Printing] > [Advanced] > [Paper End] menu, or specify by command.

(3) Media feed direction

Conditions That Trigger Paper End in the Printing Operation

1. The paper end sensor detects a no-paper condition at the position where 15 mm (0.59") has been fed.

2. If the amount of printing remaining is less than the distance between the print head position and paper end sensor -15 mm (-0.59"), a paper end error occurs after completing the output of 1. If the amount of media remaining is more than the distance between the print head position and paper end sensor -15 mm (-0.59"), a paper end error occurs right after detecting the paper end, and the product will reprint after clearing the paper end error.

(1) 61.8 mm (2.43") (2) 15 mm (0.59") (3)

(1) Print head position
(2) Paper end sensor: I-mark sensor/Gap sensor

Select in [Printing] > [Advanced] > [Paper End] menu, or specify by command.

(3) Media feed direction

If a paper end error is detected while printing, operation varies depending on the amounts of printing and media remaining when the error was detected.

The amount of media remaining can be calculated as follows:

Amount of media remaining = distance between print head position and paper end sensor -15 mm (-0.59")

(1) (2) (3) 15 mm (0.59") (4)

(1) Print head position
(2) Distance between the print head position and paper end sensor
(3) Paper end sensor
(4) Amount of media remaining

- When the Amount of Printing Remaining Is More Than the Amount of Media Remaining

If the amount of printing remaining is more than the amount of media remaining when a paper end error is detected, the product cannot finish the print job. Printing stops immediately and a paper end error occurs.

(1) 15 mm (2) (0.59") (3) (4)

(1) Print head position
(2) Paper end sensor
(3) Amount of media remaining
(4) Amount of printing remaining

- When the Amount of Printing Remaining Is Less Than the Amount of Media Remaining

If the amount of printing remaining is less than the amount of media remaining, the product will finish the print job and a paper end error will occur.

(1) (2) 15 mm (0.59") (3) (4)

(1) Print head position
(2) Paper end sensor
(3) Amount of media remaining
(4) Amount of printing remaining

If there are multiple sheets between the print head and paper end sensor when a paper end error is detected, a paper end error will occur only after finishing the label currently being printed.

(1) (2) 15 mm (0.59°) (3) (4)

(1) Print head position

(2) Paper end sensor

(3) Amount of media remaining

(4) Amount of printing remaining

Conditions That Trigger Label Near End

Label near end is detected by the label near end sensor.

Label near end occurs when the amount of label remaining is less than approximately 12 meters (39.4 feet) (media thickness: 160 μm (0.0063"), label diameter: approximately φ96 mm (3" core)).

- This feature is supported on products from serial number 6B\~ and above. Although this setting appears on products with serial number 6A\~ or below, it is not supported.

- Detection of the label near end is only for reference. The timing of label near end and paper end may overlap, or the paper end may occur before the label near end occurs depending on the label thickness and the top and bottom fluttering of the paper core.

Conditions That Trigger Ribbon End

Ribbon end error is detected by the ribbon sensor in the ribbon supply spindle. Ribbon end error occurs when the product detects that the ribbon in the ribbon supply spindle has not moved (rolled) more than 15 mm (0.59") after feeding the media.

Conditions That Trigger Ribbon Near End

Ribbon near end is detected by the ribbon sensor in the ribbon supply spindle. Ribbon near end occurs when the amount of ribbon remaining is approximately less than 15 meters (49.2 feet) (ribbon diameter: approximately 36 mm (1.42)).

- The amount of ribbon remaining (15 meters (49.2 feet)) is only for reference. The timing of ribbon near end varies depending on the ribbon thickness and the reading status of the ribbon sensor.

Manually set the Gap sensor level.

The setting procedure is as follows:

First, adjust the "Low" level (voltage) of the Gap sensor.

1. Remove the label from the liner.
2. Pass the liner through the media sensor. Align it so that the media sensor does not detect the I-mark (black mark).
3. Close the print head. To get the correct adjustment result, adjust after you have closed the print head.
4. Select the [GAP Levels] in the [Calibrate] menu and press the button.
5. Press the / buttons to change the [Emit] value until the [Sensor] value is below 0.5 (V). Set the [Emit] value as low as possible.
6. If the [Sensor] value does not decrease below 0.5 after you changed the [Emit] value, press the / buttons to change the [Receive] value.
7. Take a note of the [Sensor] value from the above procedure. This is the "Low" level value for the Gap sensor.

Next, check the "High" level (voltage) of the Gap sensor as follows:

1. Pass the media (attached with liner) between the media sensors. Align it so that the media sensor does not detect the l-mark (black mark).
2. Close the print head.
3. Check the [Sensor] value.

If the value is 1.0 (V) higher than the "Low" level value you have recorded, this is the "High" level value for the Gap sensor.

If the difference between the "High" and the "Low" levels is less than 1.0, adjust the [Emit] and [Receive] values so that the difference is more than 1.0, or adjust the "Low" level (voltage) of the Gap sensor again.

1. If both "High" and "Low" levels comply with the standard value, press the button to confirm the value.

The standard values for the "High" and "Low" levels for the Gap sensor are as follows:

- Low (with only liner) ≤ 0.5 (V)

1. Pass the media (attached with liner) between the media sensors. Align it so that the media sensor does not detect the l-mark (black mark).

2. Close the print head. To get the correct adjustment result, adjust after you have closed the print head.

3. Select the [I-Mark Levels] in the [Calibrate] menu and press the button.

4. Press the /buttons to change the [Emit] value until the [Sensor] value is below 0.5 (V). Set the [Emit] value as low as possible.

5. If the [Sensor] value does not decrease below 0.5 after you changed the [Emit] value, press the / buttons to change the [Receive] value.

6. Take a note of the [Sensor] value from the above procedure. This is the "Low" level value for the I-mark sensor.

Next, check the "High" level (voltage) of the I-mark sensor as follows:

1. Pass the media between the media sensors so that the media sensor can detect the I-mark (black mark).

2. Close the print head.

3. Check the [Sensor] value.

If the value is 1.0 (V) higher than the "Low" level value you have recorded, this is the "High" level value for the I-mark sensor. If the difference between the "High" and the "Low" levels is less than 1.0, adjust the [Emit] and [Receive] values so that the difference is more than 1.0, or adjust the "Low" level (voltage) of the I-mark sensor again.

1. If both "High" and "Low" levels comply with the standard value, press the "button to confirm the value.

The standard values for the "High" and "Low" levels for the I-mark sensor are as follows:

- Low (without I-mark) ≤ 0.5 (V)

- High (with I-mark) - Low ≥ 1.0 (V)

[I-Mark Slice Level]

I-Mark Slice Level Sensor: 3.1 ▲▼ Slice level: 0.0 V [0.0, 3.3]

- For the CL4NX RFID model, the position of the I-mark sensor becomes a minimum of 0.3 mm (0.01") when the position of the Gap sensor is adjusted to around 7.3 mm (0.3"). Because of this, the paper end may be frequently detected when the [Advanced] > [Paper End] of the [Printing] menu is set to [Using I-mark] (the default), due to the shifting of the media or other causes. When you have adjusted the position of the Gap sensor to around 7.3 mm (0.3"), change [Paper End] to [Using Gap].

Notes on the Stop/Cut Position of Different Media

Stop Position of the Label in Dispenser Mode

The regular position is to let the label stay about 2 ± 1 mm ( 0.08" ± 0.04" ) on the liner.

(1) Feed direction
(2) Dispenser bar
(3) Stop position

Cut Position When Using the Label in Cutter Mode

The regular cut position is between labels (only cut on the liner).

When you cut the label, the glue adheres to the blade of the cutter and the blade will decrease the performance of the cutter. Adjust the cut position so as not to cut the label.

Print Head Balance

Print head balance refers to the equalization of pressure between the print head and the platen roller. If the print head balance is out of adjustment, the printed image will be darker on one side of the media than the other and the media will be prone to travel in the direction of greater pressure.

Setting the Criteria of the Head Pressure Balance

The criteria of the head pressure balance is set to adapt to the using media.

• Set the head pressure according to the media thickness, including the liner.
• Set the pressure balance according to the media width (if necessary).

Printing RFID Tag Errors

If the recorded data on a tag is incomplete due to writing on a defective tag, the product will print an RFID tag error to the defective media. This function is to prevent the distribution of defective media with a tag error.

When an RFID tag error occurs, the product prints a slash and the error message, such as "WRITE TAG ERROR" or "TAG NOT FOUND". The position to print the message and slash is set using the specified media size command .

For a write error such as "WRITE TAG ERROR", the product continues to print the first 16 or 32 bytes of the write data.

The diagram below shows the message and slash printed on the position based on the media size specified by the normal print.

- To use the comparison mode, create barcodes by using barcode commands. If a barcode such as graphic data (BMP image, etc.) or a preprinted barcode is placed within the barcode readable area, this mode may not function correctly.

- In readable mode, you can include barcodes that are not created by barcode commands (such as graphic data or preprinted barcodes) as the check target. To do this, select [Settings] in [Set No. of Barcodes], and specify the number of barcodes per label in [Barcodes per Label]. However, there may be a case that those barcodes cannot be read by scanners thus this mode does not function correctly.

Setting Up the Barcode Checker

Operational Settings for the Barcode Checker and Installation

To use the barcode check function, perform necessary operational settings for the supported barcode checker and then install it to the product.

Operational Settings for the Barcode Checker

Set up the barcode checker either by using the application software provided by its manufacturer or by reading the barcodes for setting changes printed on the barcode checker's manual. For details, refer to the manual.

- Settings common to all supported barcode checkers

Limit the barcode types you permit the barcode checker to read as much as possible. If a lot of barcode types are permitted, a longer decode time is required. This can cause the barcode checker to fail to read the printed barcode.

• GFS4170, GFS4470

- Select USB-COM. The product cannot detect the barcode checker when connected with other settings.

• GFS4470

To shorten laser lighting time, it is recommended to set the reading mode to "On Line" or "Serial On Line".
• If multiple barcodes are captured at once when using the default barcode checker settings, only the first set of decoded barcode data is sent. You can change the settings to decode and send all the captured barcodes. However, if this is done, combined symbols cannot be read.
- When printing barcodes in a narrow range, allow enough time for decoding (parameter: DETM), otherwise not all of the results of the decoded captured barcodes will be sent.
Because postal barcodes consist of bars and spaces with equal intervals, they may be read as a different barcode type. When checking postal barcodes, it is recommended to set other barcode types to be unreadable.

- KEYENCE barcode checkers (BL-1301, SR-710)

Set the barcode checker's interface settings to either (1) or (2).

If the barcode checker set to (1) is connected, the product will change the settings to (2).

Settings (1) (2)
Baud rate 9600 bps 115200 bps
Data length 7 bits 8 bits
Parity Even Even
Stop bit length 1 bit 1 bit

Barcode Checker Installation

Mount the barcode checker to the optional barcode checker stand kit and connect it to the product.

For details on how to install the barcode checker, refer to the Barcode Checker Stand Kit Installation Manual that came with the barcode checker stand kit.

• Because the KEYENCE barcode checkers (BL-1301, SR-710) use an RS-232C connection, an optional scanner connection cable is required.
• When replacing media or ribbon, remove the barcode checker stand kit from the product. When doing this, first turn the switch of the magnetic base stand to OFF and remove the barcode checker stand. For details on how to use the barcode checker stand, refer to the Barcode Checker Stand Kit Installation Manual.

Changing How the RS-232C Interface is Used (When Using the KEYENCE Barcode Checkers)

When using one of the KEYENCE barcode checkers (BL-1301, SR-710), modify the barcode checker's operational settings so that it can communicate with the product, and then connect it to the product.

[Disabled]

Disable the barcode check function.

[Readable]

Enable readable mode.

[Comparison]

Enable comparison mode. This mode is for barcodes created by barcode commands.

1. Press the button to save the setting value.

• When the readable mode or comparison mode is set, a barcode reader connection error occurs if the barcode checker is not connected at product startup or at the start of printing.
• Even if the readable mode or comparison mode is set, the barcode check is not done for print data that does not include any barcode data. Normal printing is done for that data.
• In the readable mode, to include barcodes that are not created by barcode commands (such as graphic data or preprinted barcodes) as the check target, select [Settings] in [Set No. of Barcodes], and specify the number of barcodes per label in [Barcodes per Label].
• When [VOID Print] is enabled, you can identify a defective label by printing error marks on it.
• The log data of barcode check results is saved on the product and can be copied to the USB memory from the [Logs] menu. By enabling [Host Notification], you can also return check results to the host from which the print data is sent.

Contents of the Check for Readable Mode and Comparison Mode

The barcode check function has readable mode and comparison mode. The contents of the check for each mode are as follows.

• You can check multiple barcodes on one label. Though the number of barcodes on one label is not limited, a reading error occurs when the total size of the barcode data exceeds 200 Kb.
• In the readable mode, you can include barcodes that are not created by barcode commands (such as graphic data or preprinted barcodes) as the check target, but you need to specify the number of barcodes per label in advance. Select [Settings] in [Set No. of Barcodes], and specify the number of barcodes per label in [Barcodes per Label].
• Reading of barcodes starts after the label length specified in [Start Position] passes. In modes where the product backfeeds before printing, the product backfeeds first, and then feeds the length of the start position.

Readable mode

This mode checks if the printed barcodes are readable. The readability is determined by whether the number of barcodes the barcode checker reads matches the number of barcodes in the print data.

- The reading is considered to be successful if the number of barcodes the barcode checker reads reaches the number of barcodes in the print data. The product prints the next label.

Restrictions for the Barcode Check Function

Common Restrictions for the Barcode Check Function

- When the product is powered on while the barcode checker is connected, the barcode checker is also powered on and emits a laser light. Be sure to keep the laser away from your eyes.

• The reading accuracy of barcodes or 2D codes is affected by label conditions (label curl, print quality, etc.) and the usage environment (ambient light, temperature, humidity, etc.), and readability is not guaranteed. Be sure to do a test read with the barcode checker you will use in advance.
• The types of paper that can be used are the same as the product specifications. If the label color is silver or laminated, however, it makes it difficult for the barcode checker to read the barcode, as the light of the barcode checker may cause a reflection on the label surface. Be sure to do a test read carefully in advance.
• Design the label layout so that barcodes or 2D codes do not remain within the scanning range of the barcode checker at the completion of printing. If the barcode of the previous label remains in the scanning range at the start of the next printing, the barcode checker may read the same barcode twice. The image below is when in continuous mode. As the stop position differs depending on the product's print mode and commands, be sure to check your label layout carefully in advance.

(2) × ○ (1)

(1) Media feed direction
(2) Print head position

- Barcodes printed within the following range from the print end position cannot be read and a reading error inevitably occurs. As the following table is only for a reference, be sure to do a test read carefully in advance.

Print modes Ranges to be avoided
Continuous Approximately 11	mm (0.43") from the print end position
Cutter	Cutting every labelApproximately 25 mm (0.98") from the print end positionCutting according to the specified number of labelsApproximately 44 mm (1.73") from the print end position
Cut & Print Approximately 44	mm (1.73") from the print end position
Dispenser No restriction
Linerless (CL4NX only) Approximately 25 mm (0.98") from the print end position

- The barcode check is not performed if the position at which the check starts is detected after the label feeding begins to stop. Define the label layout and position at which the check starts by keeping in mind that the distance required for stopping is proportional to the print speed.

- Printed barcodes or 2D codes can be read only with a size at which their entire pattern is within the scanning range of the barcode checker. A reading error may occur depending on the print position.

- This function cannot be controlled through the use of external signals (EXT).

- The barcode check function for GS1-128 barcodes is supported by the 1.10.0 version firmware build or later. When using GS1-128, configure the barcode checker to enable the data output format for GS1-128. When CODE128 and GS1-128 are used together with a BL-1301 barcode checker, do the settings in each setting bank. At that time, assign to GS1-128 a number that is smaller than the setting bank of CODE128.

- When powering on the product, do not connect or disconnect the barcode checker. The product may not operate properly.

- Setting the decoding number for BL-1301 and WB1F-100S1S barcode checkers cannot be done from the product by the 1.10.0 version firmware build or later. If a barcode reading error occurs, change the count settings for reading (BL-1301: Decode match count / WB1F-100S1S: Verify count). Also, when using the optional barcode checker stand kit, exclude barcode types other than those to be checked. If any barcode type other than those to be checked is set, a decreased reading speed or misreading other barcode types may occur.

- The barcode data that can be read for 1 item is up to 200 bytes per barcode and up to 200 Kb in total.

Restrictions When Using GF4170

- It keeps emitting a laser light while the product is powered on. To turn off the laser light, power off the product.

Restrictions When Using GFS4470

- By the double-reading prevention function, the barcode checker may not read barcodes that are printed successively if they are within the readable area. Adjust the print position so that same barcodes are not within the readable area.

- When printing composite symbols that use GS1 DataBar, the read data and print data never match if the barcode data is 16 digits or less. A comparison error occurs in comparison mode.

- Though "\" (0x5C) specified in MAXI code, print data should be read as "\" in the specifications. However, it may not be read as such, depending on the following data. For example, "\A" specified in print data should be read as "\A" in the specifications, but it is actually read as only "A".

Restrictions When Using WB1F-100S1S

- Multiple barcodes cannot be read at the same time.

- When NUL (0x00) is included in CODE128 print data, only the data before NUL is recognized as reading data, and NUL and the data after NUL are ignored. A comparison error occurs in comparison mode. In readable mode, a reading error occurs only if NUL is specified at the beginning of the print data.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Product

Cleaning

A dirty print head or platen roller not only affects the print quality but also causes errors. Use a cleaning kit or cleaning sheet to clean the product regularly.

• Do not power on or off the product, connect or disconnect the power cord while your hands are wet. Doing so could cause an electric shock.
• Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet before you begin cleaning.
  The print head and its surroundings are hot after printing. Wait until the product cools down.
• Touching the edge of the print head with your bare hand could cause injury.
• Be careful not to touch the cutter blade when cleaning the product.
• Use a cotton swab or cotton cloth from a cleaning kit for cleaning. Do not clean with a hard object. Doing so could cause damage.
• Before cleaning, remove the media and ribbon.

CAUTION for CL4NX only (if installed with linerless cutter kit)

• Open the print head if the product is not used for printing for more than one day. Paper jam might occur in the next printing if the print head is closed for a long period with linerless label loaded.
• When loading linerless label, make sure that the front end of the media extends about 3 cm (1.18") out the media discharge outlet.

- The cleaning kit and cleaning sheet are optional. Contact your SATO reseller or technical support center to purchase the options.
