Sensor Calibration The CX200 uses a single sensor element for both direct thermal (without a ribbon) and thermal transfer (with a ribbon) printi ng. The method of print- ing can be selected for the CX200TT by using configuration settings in the software program or by sending command directly to the printer (see page 92 of the Programming Guide).
Using the Printer Printing a Self-test Label Printing a self-test label checks the printer ’ s overall operability . T o run a self-test, confirm that the printer is loaded and connected to AC power and no print jobs are in process. Then: 1. Press and hold in the READY Indicator .
• stop any printing. • delete the label format in process from memory . • reset the printer communication ports. • return all printer parameters to their default (first power-on) state. Pressing the READY indicator a second time will return the printer to On- Line mode (its default condition).
Routine Maintenance SA TO America printers need very little maintenance other than occasional cleaning. Clean the printer body as required, using soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent cleaner . Clean the print head if it appears dirty or if print quality is poor .
What T o Do If... SA TO printers are very reliable, so printing problems are unlikely . If you do think you have a printer problem, proceed as follows: 1. Confirm that the printer has the right media installed, and that it is loaded correctly . See page 4 for media loading instructions.
4. If you have been printing many labels, the printer may have overheated. Normal operation will resume after the printer has cooled sufficiently . Self-test label will not print 1. If printing in the direct thermal mode, confirm that you have loaded di- rect thermal media.
Labels feed continuously 1. Check that the print media is loaded correctly . 2. Confirm that the sensor type (Eye-Mark or gap) in your software setup matches your print media. Poor print quality 1. Confirm that the print media is properly loaded, and there is no side-to- side motion of the paper as it feeds through the printer .
