Pertech 5300 Manual Do Utilizador

The printer driver will display printer status via an icon in 

the Windows System Tray, which is located on the task 

bar next to the clock.  There are several different icons 

that could be possibly displayed, but the one shown 

represents the last printer status item that changed.  To 

display the complete status, right click on the icon and a 

window will pop-up showing all status items.

The icon can be turned off in a number of ways.  Clicking 

on the 53xx Printer Property menu will shut the icon off 

until the next print job is sent.  It can also be optionally 

disabled by unchecking “Enable bidirectional support” 

in the “Ports” tab , or unchecking “Enable Status” in the 

“Device Setting” tab of the 53xx Printer Properties dialog 

box. 

To see a complete list of icons, please click “Help” on the 

“Device Setting” tab  of the 53xx Printer Property page.

Limited status information is also displayed in the “De-

tails” view of the “Printers and Faxes”dialog box under 

the “Status” column.

The printer may be configured at any time by clicking on 

the printer icon in the printer folder with the right mouse 

button and selecting Properties.  The Device Setting Tab 

allows the user to set the following parameters.

This is set to 1 second as a default and refers to the de-

lay between the printer sensing that a validation slip has 

been inserted into the validation slot  and the validation 

clamp operating.  It is recommended that this be no less 

than 1 second.

This is set to maximum (1.75 inches) as a default but 

can be set between .17 to 1.75 inches.  This should be 

set to match the printer configuration setting under the 

heading “Document Stop”.

This is set to 1.57 inches (40 mm) as a default but can 

be changed as required.  “Bill out” refers to the length of 

paper that is appended to the end of a print  job and is 

normally used to move the paper up to the printer’s tear 

bar.  It is only operational if selected in the Document 

Defaults dialog box. 

Clicking this button gives version information about the 

driver.

If this box is checked (this is the default condition) then 

information about the current status of the printer is dis-

played in the bottom of the screen on the task bar.  

Ink Level (Inkjet models only)

This bar is adjusted when sending a print job and gives a 

estimated visual representation of the amount of ink left 

in the cartridge.

The 535x printers perform automatic maintenance for 

best print quality when required, but if it is desired to 

force the printer to self clean its nozzles,  click this but-

ton.
