QL Series User Guide

LCD Control Panel

The optional LCD control panel has buttons for the power

on/off and media feed functions just as in the standard control

panel.  In addition, it has two keys which allow easy navigation

and selection of menu options affecting many printer func-

tions.

The “Scroll” button allows scrolling through the various op-

tions and settings.  The “Select” button allows selection of the

option or function displayed on the screen.

The top of the screen has a row of status icons which indi-

cate the state of various printer functions:

Indicates that the printer is associated with a wireless

Local Area Network (LAN).  This icon is functional only

with QL Series printers with a WLAN wireless option

installed.

A flashing icon indicates low battery status.  You

should suspend any printing operations and recharge or

replace the Battery Pack as soon as is convenient.

A flashing icon indicates that the media cover is open or

not properly latched.

A flashing icon indicates that a file is being down-

loaded to the printer.

 A flashing icon indicates that the printer does not detect

any media.  This could indicate an out of media condition,

or improperly loaded media.

In addition to the status icons, the LCD control panel can dis-

play many of the printer’s settings and functions as text.  Ap-

plications can be written to allow the user to view and /or

modify these settings using the scroll and select keys on the

display.  Refer to the “LCD Functions Table” on the following

page for the full set of printer features that can be made avail-

able with the LCD panel.
