• The Card Save function is used to save print jobs received by the printer on an SD card with no print output. Card Save mode is toggled using printer Bit Switch #1 bit number 4. Card Save will remain enabled until the SD card becomes full, or until all file names have been used.
  • Captures are stored on the SD card in the folder /prt/cardsave. File names are assigned sequentially from PRT00000.prn to PRT99999.prn. An additional file PRT.CTL will be created. This file contains a list of all files created on the card by the card save function.
  • Previously stored files on the SD card can be overwritten or left intact. Card Save SD has "Add" and "New" menu items.
    • Card Save (Add): Appends files to the SD Card. Does not overwrite existing files. If the card becomes full or if all file names are used, an error will be displayed on the operation panel. Subsequent jobs will not be stored.
    • Card Save (New): Overwrites files in the card's /prt/cardsave directory.

Limitation:

  • Card Save cannot be used with PJL Status Read Back commands. PJL Status Read Backs will not work. In addition they will cause the Card Save to fail.
