AP 4.4 – AP 5.4 – AP 5.6 – AP 7.t – 64-xx – DPM – PEM – ALX 92x – PM 3000

Keyboard On request, a keyboard can be connected to the printer. This considerably

simplifies entry of variable data, especially when dealing with text.

¯ 64-xx, DPM, PEM and ALX 92x of Generation 2 require an additional board

for connecting the keyboard, see chapter Options board  on page 9. The Op-

tions board provides a PS/2 connector; an USB-to-PS/2 adapter comes with

the offered keyboards.

The matching keyboard layout is set with parameter SYSTEM PARAMETER >

keyboard.

¯ Before first use, check if the intended keyboard really works with the

printer.

Functional Description

Standalone operation means the printer can be operated without it needing to

be connected to a host computer. For this purpose, a PC is used to store the

print job on a CompactFlash card (CF card). After this card is plugged into the

card slot at the printer, the operator can start the print jobs on demand. For

this, he uses the printer control panel or a keyboard connected to the printer.

Variable data can also be entered via the control panel or the external key-

board.

The standalone mode can always be accessed from the „normal“ printer oper-

ation (with online/offline mode and message mode). To do so, press the

Online and Esc buttons simultaneously.

It is helpfull to imagine two consoles, between which can be switched by press-

ing Online+Esc.
