Ribbon Motion

This parameter provides fault override for Ribbon Motion Faults.

Shuttle

This parameter provides fault override for Shuttle Fault reporting.

Temp

The Temp Parameter provides fault override for Temperature Threshold fault reporting.

Platen

This parameter provides fault override for the Platen Open Sensor.

Control

This parameter provides fault override for the control processor fault reporting status.

Link

This parameter provides fault override for control processor to main processor communications.

Sync

This parameter provides fault override for the "Lost Sync (28)" error in Twinax Interface Mode.

Check printer cable connection.

Diagnostic Category

This category contains parameters for testing various printer components, for setting operational

thresholds, and for calibrating certain sensors.  You are guided through these diagnostic proce-

dures by instructions on the Control Panel Display.  There are 12 diagnostic parameters.

Calibrations

This parameter provides a means to calibrate the hammer timing pulses to obtain the best print

quality, and to calibrate the Paper Out sensor.  There are three selections for Calibrations:

Hammer, Paper Out, and Platen Gap Cal.

After an initial calibration (the standard "hammer" calibration), if print quality is acceptable, no

further calibration is needed. The additional procedures need only be performed if certain types

of quality defects persist. As with "Hammer" calibration procedure, this option must be invoked

separately for single-part and multi-part form platen gap settings.
