Maintenance Counter  Count Conditions 
Total label distance covered 
Label distance covered Counts whenever the paper feed motor is driven to feed or 
print a label.    (Counts also during a reverse feed 
operation.) 
When the power is turned off, a label distance of up to 50.0 
cm may be rounded down and backed up. 
Print distance  Counts while printing.    (Counting is not performed during a 
backfeed operation.) 
203 dpi: 
When the power is turned off, a print distance of 8.2 m or 
less is rounded down and backed up. 
300 dpi: 
When the power is turned off, a print distance of 5.5 m or 
less is rounded down and backed up. 
Cut count  Every cut operation is counted. 
When the power is turned off, a cut count of 31 or less is 
rounded down and backed up. 
Ribbon motor drive time  Counts when the ribbon motor is driven to feed or print a 
label.    (Counts also during a backfeed operation.) 
203 dpi: 
When the power is turned off, a drive time of 32 seconds 
or less is rounded down and backed up. 
300 dpi: 
When the power is turned off, a drive time of 27 seconds 
or less is rounded down and backed up. 
RS-232C hardware error 
count Counts when a parity error, an overrun error, or a framing 
error occurs. 
*  When data of several bytes is transmitted continuously, 
counting is performed per byte. 
System error count  Counts when a system error of No. 22 listed in section 5.11
“LCD MESSAGES AND LED INDICATIONS” occurs.  
						

							 
- 57 - Maintenance Counter  Count Conditions 
Momentary power interruption 
count Counts when a momentary power interruption occurs. 
The number of times a tag 
data write succeeded. Counts the number of times a tag data write succeeded. 
The number of times a tag 
data write failed. Counts the number of times a tag data write failed.
