PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide 63 Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer Troubleshooting Communication Problems You can use Dump mode to verify that the printer is receiving data correctly from the host. Using the Line Analyzer in Fingerprint In Dump mode, the printer runs a Fingerprint program called Line analyzer. The Line Analyzer captures incoming characters on the communication ports and prints them on one or more labels. The easiest way to enter Dump mode is through Test mode or Extended Test mode. For help, see Using Testmode and Extended Testmode to Troubleshoot on page 65. After the printer enters Dump mode, the printer tells you it has entered Dump mode by printing it on a label. The printer is ready to receive data. If you have a PD42, the Dump mode icon appears on the screen. While the printer is receiving data, the Ready-to-Work indicator blinks. After a half of a second, if no more characters have been received, the printer times out. The program considers the transmission terminated and prints out a label. Printable characters are printed in black-on-white. Control characters and space characters (ASCII 000 to 032 dec) are printed in white-on-
black. As long as a continuous string of characters is being received, the program wraps the lines until the label is full and then starts to print another label. After each character transmission, the following information prints:
Page number Number of characters printed on the label Total number of characters received so far When you exit Dump mode, a final label prints to inform you that it exited Dump mode. 64 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer Using Dump Mode When you enter Dump mode, the printer captures incoming characters on the communications ports and prints them on one or more labels. You can access Dump mode in two different ways with slightly different results:
You can access Dump mode through Test mode or Extended Test mode and you will receive printouts that look exactly like those produced with the Line Analyzer program in Fingerprint. For more information, see the previous procedure, Using the Line Analyzer in Fingerprint on page 64.

To clear a media jam 1 Turn off the printer. 2 Pull out on the printhead lever and turn it counterclockwise to lift the printhead. 3 Pull the media away from the print mechanism. If the media has been wound up or is stuck on the platen roller, carefully remove it by hand without using any sharp tools that can damage the platen roller or the printhead. Note: Avoid rotating the platen roller. You may permanently damage the electronic components. 4 Cut off any damaged or wrinkled part of the media. 5 Check to see if adhesive material is sticking to parts of the print mechanism. If you need to clean the printhead, see Maintaining the Printer on page 79. 6 Reload the media. For help, see The state of the printer also determines the functions and icons that are active in the screen. on page 11. 7 Turn on the printer power. 8 Press the Print button the adjust the media feed. Adjusting the Printhead Keeping the printhead properly balanced is crucial for obtaining high-
quality printouts. Adjusting the printhead consists of adjusting the:
70 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer printhead balance. printhead pressure. printhead dotline. Adjusting Printhead Balance The printer is adjusted at the factory for full-width media. If you are using media that is less than full-width, Intermec recommends that you adjust the position of the printhead balance boxes so that the printhead is correctly pressured against the media. If your printouts are lighter on one side than the other, it is most likely due to an unbalanced printhead. To adjust the printhead balance 1 If you have installed thermal transfer ribbon, remove it. 2 Pull out on the printhead lever and turn it counterclockwise to lift the printhead. PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide 71 Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer 3 Move the balance boxes:
outward for wider media. inward for narrower media. Balance box 4 Close the printhead and load the ribbon. 5 Test and readjust the balance boxes if necessary. Adjusting Printhead Pressure The pressure of the thermal printhead against the platen roller is adjusted at the factory. You may need to readjust hte printhead pressure if the printing is weaker on one side of the media, or if the thermal transfer ribbon starts to crease (indicated by unprinted white streaks along the media feed direction). Note: Before adjusting the printhead pressure, try to move the outer balance box as described in the the previous procedure, Adjusting Printhead Balance. 72 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer To adjust the printhead pressure 1 If you have installed thermal transfer ribbon, remove it. 2 Pull out on the printhead lever and turn it counterclockwise to lift the printhead. 3 Using a slotted screwdriver, turn the screw at the top of the balance boxes:
clockwise to increase pressure. counterclockwise to decrease pressure. 4 Close the printhead and load the ribbon. 5 Test and readjust the pressure if necessary. Adjusting Printhead Dot Line When using thick or stiff media, you need to move the printhead forward so that the dot line is aligned precisely with the top of the platen roller. You also need to make sure that the printhead dot line and the platen roller are parallel. PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide 73 Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer To adjust the printhead dot line 1 If you have installed thermal transfer ribbon, remove it and close the printhead. 2 Use a slotted screwdriver to turn the two screws at the top of the printhead bracket counterclockwisea single turn. 3 Pull out on the printhead lever and turn it counterclockwise to lift the printhead. 4 Carefully turn both screws, at the front of the printhead, clockwise a quarter of a turn at a time. 74 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer Note: Be sure you make identical adjustments on both screws. If you are unsure, tighten both screws completely by turning them counterclockwise as far as they will go, and then start over. 5 Close the printhead and using the slotted screwdriver to turn the two screws at the top of the printhead bracket clockwise a single turn. 6 If you are using thermal transfer ribbon, load it. 7 Test and readjust if necessary. Adjusting the Label Stop Sensor The label stop sensor (also called label gap sensor or black mark sensor) is a photoelectric sensor that controls the media feed by detecting gaps between labels, or slots or black marks in continuous stock. For the sensor to work, it must be aligned with the gaps, slots, or marks on the media. If you are using irregularly shaped labels, align the sensor with the front tip of the labels. PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide 75 Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer To adjust the label stop sensor position 1 Pull out on the printhead lever and turn it counterclockwise to lift the printhead. 2 Use the sensor lever at the rear side of the print mechanism to move the sensor inward or outward. Sensor lever 3 Check the point of detection from the front with the printhead lifted. 76 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer Point of detection If you are having detection problems, you can test the label stop sensor in Setup mode. The label stop sensor tests can determine whether the sensor is in the right position, if it is blocked by dust or stuck labels, or if it is defective in some way. Setup mode has these two test functions:
LSS Auto: Checks to make sure that the label stop sensor is working properly and can detect gaps, slots, and black marks. LSS Manual: Shows the sensor setting established by the latest Testfeed. LSS Manual is intended to be used by Intermec service personnel only. To run the LSS Auto test 1 Make sure the printer is correctly configured for the type of media you are using. 2 Press Testfeed (

When the label stop sensor detects a gap or a detection slot, the cursor moves to the right. LSS AUTO 8 For black mark detection: Lift the printhead and slowly pull out the media in the feed direction. When the label stop sensor detects a black mark, the cursor moves to the left. LSS AUTO If the cursor behaves as described in Steps 7 and 8, the label stop sensor is working and is properly aligned. 78 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer If the cursor does not detect a gap, slot, or black mark, check the following:
Is the label stop sensor laterally aligned with the slots or black marks?
Is the transfer ribbon properly loaded so it does not interfere with the label stop sensor? For help, see Loading Thermal Transfer Ribbon on page 17. Are the label stop sensor guides clean? If not, clean them as described in the next section Maintaining the Printer. Does the media have preprint information on it that can make detection harder?
Is there too little contrast between the black marks and the surrounding areas?
Is the label liner not transparent enough?
Does the label stop sensor work with another type of media?
Maintaining the Printer To ensure high productivity and a long life for your printer, Intermec recommends that you regularly inspec the printer and its environment to make sure that it is operated under optimal conditions. Keep the printer in a dry area, away from large electrical motors, welders, and similar products that might affect printer operation. Clean your printer regularly to maintain the quality of your labels and extend the life of your printer. If you open the electronics cover, you will void the warranty and may cause damage to the internal components. Opening the electrical cover exposes the user to shock hazards which may result in injury or death. Always turn off the printer and unplug the power cord before cleaning the printer. PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide 79 Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer Cleaning the Printhead Cleaning the printhead on a regular basis prolongs the life of the printhead and ensures that you maintain high print quality. You should clean the printhead with cleaning cards or a cotton swab moistened with isopropyl alcohol. Ideally, you should clean the printhead every time you load a new supply of thermal transfer ribbon. Isopropyl alcohol is a highly flammable, moderately toxic, and mildly irritating substance. Never use hard or sharp tools to peel away stuck labels or other material. The printhead is delicate and can easily be damaged. To clean the printhead 1 Open the media cover. 2 Remove the media and ribbon. 3 Pull out on the printhead lever and turn it counterclockwise to lift the printhead. 4 Use a cleaning card or a soft cotton swab moistened with isopropyl alcohol to dissolve any contamination on the line of heat-emitting dots at the front/bottom of the printhead. 5 Wait 30 seconds and carefully rub off any contamination. 6 Repeat Steps 4 and 5 if necessary. 7 Allow the printhead to dry for a minute or more before loading a new supply of media and ribbon. Cleaning the Media Compartment Regular cleaning of the printers media compartment ensures smoother printing operation and avoids problems with media jams. 80 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer Use a soft cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol to clean the inside of the printer. Isopropyl alcohol is a highly flammable, moderately toxic, and mildly irritating substance. Be sure to keep the following parts clean:
Drive roller and tear bar Media edge guides and media path Label sensors insert illustration?
If there are stuck labels, or adhesive residue from labels, peel as much as possible with your fingers, and then use isopropyl alcohol to dissolve the remaining adhesive. Cleaning the Exterior of the Printer Make sure to keep the exterior of the printer clean, this will reduce the risk of dust or foreign particles reaching the inside of the printer and affect printer functionality. Use a soft cloth, possibly moistened with water or a mild detergent when cleaning the printer externally. Make sure to keep the surface surrounding the printer clean as well. If you use the printer in an environment where the premises are cleaned by a water hose or steam, move the printer to another room or cover it very carefully with a plastic sheet and make sure that the power cord is unplugged.

Do not allow a perforation to break the edge of the media, because the media may split and jam the printer. IPL: MARK Note: Try to avoid preprint that may interfere with the detection of the black mark. However, if your are running Fingerprint, you can use the command LBLCOND to temporarily disable the sensor for a specified amount of media feed to avoid unintentional detection.

To order accessories, contact your local Intermec sales representative. Internal Rewinder Use this accessory, which comes with a guide shaft, for peel-off (self-
strip) printing. You can also use the rewinder to roll up complete batches of labels. Paper Cutter Use this accessory to cut off continuous paper-based stock or liner between labels. You can collect the cut-off labels, tickets, or tags in an optional tray. If you are running Fingerprint or Direct Protocol, you can control the paper cutter using the commands CUT, CUT ON, and CUT OFF. For help, see the Intermec Fingerprint Command Reference Manual. Real Time Clock The Real Time Clock (RTC) automatically keeps track of the current time. The RTC has its own backup battery backup that lasts for at least 10 years. Font Card The font card is a CompactFlash memory card loaded with double-
byte font sets including Kanji, Korean, and Chinese. Parallel IEEE 1284 Interface Board The parallel IEEE 1284 interface board supports Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and additional status reporting through IEEE 1284 nibble ID mode. You can use the parallel board with LabelShop or InterDriver.

The following sections contain a device tree structure and brief descriptions of the different devices and directories of the file system. Device Tree Structure This illustration shows the device tree structure of the printer.
/ (root) c card1 dev pffs rom tmp ADMIN boot images secure Devices and Directories The file system of the printer is case-sensitive. This fact is important because filenames in Fingerprint commands are translated into capital letters by default. Directories or files with lowercase names will be inaccessible for Fingerprint commands and programs. Depending on how you choose to navigate the file system on the printer, you will need to use different commands. 116 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide Appendix D Advanced Configuration If you are accessing the printer through an FTP client or a web browser, you can easily navigate through the different devices and directories. Lowercase letters are not an issue for FTP or a web browser. If you are accessing the printer through raw TCP (net1:), you use Fingerprint to communicate with the printer. Since Fingerprint commands are translated into uppercase letters, you are restricted from accessing devices and directories with lowercase names. For more information on using Fingerprint, refer to the Fingerprint Command Reference Manual.
/(root) The root node is write protected to preserve the device and file structure of the printer.
/c
/c is the user file system. You can create directories here to store files such as programs, fonts, and images. ADMIN This directory is only accessible for the admin user. It contains start order, Fingerprint restrictions, and other configuration parameters only configurable for an admin. boot This directory contains the firmware, password file, and other system information. card1 This directory is the Compact Flash file system used to store large fonts, images and so on. You can also use this device to upgrade the firmware of the printer.
/dev This directory is where devices used for input/output, such as uart1, Flash, net1, parallel IEEE 1284, and so on are located. pffs:
The power fail file system is used to store files that need to be saved at power down. Files stored on this unit cannot exceed the size of 256 bytes each, and the total size of the pffs unit is 32 KB. PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide 117 Appendix D Advanced Configuration
/rom This device is used to store a collection of files that are available as default in the printer, for example the default web pages, fonts, and images. images This directory is used to store images used for the default web pages. secure This directory is used to store the password protected web pages. tmp:
This is the printers temporary read/write memory. It will lose its content when the power is turned off or at a power failure. Do not use tmp: to store valuable data. One advantage of using tmp: instead of /c to temporarily store data is that data can be written to SDRAM faster than to the flash memory. Customing the Printer Home Page The easiest way to modify the appearance of the printer web page is to create an HTML file called INDEX.HTM on the device /c with custom designed logo and colors. From this file it is quite easy to link to the configuration pages of the printer. The web server generates these web pages with dynamic information on the fly. This process makes the real-time generated pages of the printer appear in the Intermec style. The colors and logo of the customer will be ignored. Web Style Guide Files The printer network cards are prepared for customization of the default web pages in a more permanent way by changing the configuration of the engine that generates the pages. While generating the pages, the web server accesses configuration parameters, like the background color, the name of logos to display on the page and generates the HTML code. Default configuration of these parameters makes the printers web page appear in the Intermec style, with corporate colors and logos. When changing the parameters, the web pages are permanently customized. 118 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide Appendix D Advanced Configuration Customization of these parameters has to be done in specific files called Web Style Guide Files, assigning user-defined values to several support environment variables. Web style guide files contain parameters to set web page content and layout. These files can be stored either on /c or pffs:. In the file system, /c has priority over pffs:, which implies that if there is a web style guide on /c (for example /c/webstyleguide.0), the printer will not look for pffs:webstyleguide.1. We suggest that web style guides are stored on pffs: to minimize the risk that they are accidentally removed. Content of a Web Style Guide File A Web Style Guide file has to contain a set of mandatory environment variables and it can also contain optional variables. All variables have to be lowercase, followed by a = sign and a consistent value. There is no specific order of the variables. Required Environment Variables Use the reference table below to understand all of the required environment variables. Understanding Required Environment Variables Variable bgco coli cona loat trna Description Background color, BGCOLOR attribute of BODY tag. Copyright link, link to html file showing Copyright notes. Company name. Logotype attributes, contains all attributes for the IMG-tag to replace the Intermec logo. Trade name. Optional Environment Variables The optional environment variables are used to specify extra parameters; for instance, these variables permit to change the printers model name. The web server only recognizes the following model names:
PD41 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide 119 Appendix D Advanced Configuration PD42 The web server checks the available hardware and then displays the correct model name in the web page. If the page has to show a different name of the printer, the web style guide file has to contain the optional variable printer=your name. Optional Variables Reference Table Variable Description alco Active link color, ALINK attribute of BODY tag. Background image link, BACKGROUND attribute of BODY tag. Help on, enables a help link on the page. Comments If this parameter is in the webstyle guide file, the variables heli and hena must have a value. If this parameter is in the webstyle guide file, then the variables suli and suna must have a value. BGLI heon heli hena lico suon suli suna teco vlco Help link, link associated to the Help tag. Help link name, the label to be shown on the web page. Link color, LINK attribute of BODY tag. Support link on, enables a support link on the page. Support link, this is the link associated withe the support tag. Support link name, this is the label to be shown on the web page. Text color, TEXT attribute of the BODY tag. Visited link color. 120 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide Appendix D Advanced Configuration x-www-url-Encoding Syntax Rules The value given to environment variables has to be specified respecting the x-www-url-encoding syntax rules. According to the syntax rules, characters can be inserted using the notation %<ASCII Hex>. For example, space in the ASCII table has the Hex number 20 so it corresponds to %20. For example, Intermec Technologies Corporation corresponds to Intermec%20Technologies%20Corporation (it can also be written Intermec+Technologies+Corporation). Colors are specified according to the RGB syntax: %23cdcdcd corresponds to #cdcdcd. Any quotation marks (%22) must be preceded by a back slash (\). The file must contain only one line, where the different variables and valuers are separated by ampersand (&) characters. Memory and Storage Web Style Guide files are designed to be placed on the printers pffs, as mentioned. Due to the memory limits of the pffs the environment variables have very short name (4 bytes), which may make them less user friendly to use, but this allows more space to be used for the value of the variable. There is also a size limit per file that is set to 256 bytes. In case the Web Style Guide File you want to create is bigger than 256 bytes, the content has to be split in more than one file. The parser daemon will start looking for the first Web Style Guide File which has to be named webstyleguide.0, then it will try to read the next file called webstyleguide.1 and so on. Creating a Web Style Guide File You can create Web Style Guide Files with a standard text editor and then transfer them to the printer. Follow these rules when creating a Web Style Guide File:
The name has to be lowercase. The first file has to have extension .0. The following files have to have sequential extension number if one number is missing in the sequence the parser will stop reading the files. PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer Users Guide 121 Appendix D Advanced Configuration The split point between one web style guide and the other cannot be in the middle of a line. The last line of the file has to be consistent in the syntax and the first line of the following web style guide file has to be a new line. If variables are specified more than one time, the last value is the one assumed. Intermec recommends that you use the FTP server to transfer the files. Example (the default Web Style Guide):
