Safety Summary
Your safety is extremely important. Read and follow all
warnings and cautions in this book before handling and
operating Intermec equipment. You can be seriously injured, and
equipment and data can be damaged if you do not follow the
safety warnings and cautions.
Do not repair or adjust alone Do not repair or adjust energized
equipment alone under any circumstances. Someone capable of
providing first aid must always be present for your safety.
First aid Always obtain first aid or medical attention
immediately after an injury. Never neglect an injury, no matter
how slight it seems.
Resuscitation Begin resuscitation immediately if someone is
injured and stops breathing. Any delay could result in death. To
work on or near high voltage, you should be familiar with
approved industrial first aid methods.
Energized equipment Never work on energized equipment
unless authorized by a responsible authority. Energized
electrical equipment is dangerous. Electrical shock from
energized equipment can cause death. If you must perform
authorized emergency work on energized equipment, be sure
that you comply strictly with approved safety regulations.

procedure, practice, condition, or statement
that must be strictly observed to prevent
equipment damage or destruction, or
corruption, or loss of data.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Checklist
You may have printer operation, print quality, or printer
communications problems at some time during the life of your
printer. It is easy to fix most of the errors and consequently not
delay operation of the printer for very long.
To troubleshoot your printer
1. First try cleaning the printer components and checking all of
the connections. See Chapter 3, Maintaining the Printer, for
details.
2. If cleaning the printer and checking the connections does not
solve the problem, use the following tables to locate the
symptom. Follow the solution in the table to fix your
problem.
If you receive an error message on your PC, refer to your IPL
Programming Reference Manual for a complete list of error
messages and their solutions.
If the problem persists, contact your Intermec Customer Service
Representative:

Printer Options
This section contains a list of the options you can use with the
printer along with a brief description. Consult your Intermec
representative to order any option.
Battery Pack The battery pack allows you to take your printer
anywhere without the need to attach it to a power supply. When
the battery pack is fully charged, you can run the printer for
approximately 8 hours and print up to 500 labels.
Cutter Use the cutter option to cut continuous media into
individual labels ready for use. This option works best for
individual random lengths or short batches of different label
lengths.
Memory Expansion The memory expansion card is available in 1
or 4 MB flash modules. You can use the flash memory cards for
the storage of label formats, single- or double-byte fonts, and
bitmap graphics.

About Communications
The 7421 printer supports both serial and parallel
communications. Using the parallel interface with an IEEE 1284
parallel interface cable (Part No. 590124) provides the best
performance.
Your printer has the following hardware and software
requirements:
The host computer must use the American Standard Code for
Information Exchange (ASCII) for data communications.
A serial port or a parallel port must be available on the host if
you are connecting directly to the printer.
The host must support the RS-232 or data communications
interface.
For information on configuring the host computer, port
concentrator, or network controller, see the reference manual for
the controlling device.

US
EM

FS
DC1

DC1
Note: Do not confuse the Buffer now full <DC3> status with the
XON/XOFF characters <DC1> and <DC3>.
When the printer returns Buffer Now Full (<DC3>) status, it
accepts the currently received message block. At this time, the
printer can accept short messages to allow parsing of immediate
commands such as Reset (<DLE>) or Cancel Batch Printing
(<EM>). However, if the printer responds with a <GS> to any
message block, the buffer is already full and the printer discards
the entire message block. In case of a transmission error, the
printer discards the whole message block and responds with a
Negative Acknowledgment (NAK). You should retransmit the
message block from the host.
B-4
XON/XOFF Protocol
XON/XOFF protocol uses the ASCII characters <DC1> (XON)
and <DC3> (XOFF) to start and stop the flow of data from the
host to the printer. The printer does not restrict the message
length for XON/XOFF protocol. That is, the printer processes
information as it is being downloaded and stops when there is
no more information.
<STX> and <ETX> are optional characters. However, if you send
an STX, the printer ignores all other characters until you send an
ETX.
Intermec provides two versions of the XON/XOFF protocol. The
Intermec version of XON/XOFF has the printer respond to each
message with its current status. The other version conforms to
generally accepted industry standards that include no end-ofmessage response being sent to the host other than XOFF. In
addition, a DC3 is sent to the host if the printer is offline or if
media fault occurs. An XON is sent on power up.
Since the printer uses DC1 and DC3 for data flow control, the
printer status characters are different from those of the Standard
Protocol.

B-5
Hardware Protocol
The printer uses Ready/Busy and DTR (data terminal ready) of
the RS-232C interface to indicate the printers status. You can
configure Ready/Busy and DTR independent of each other and
independent of the software protocol you select for the serial
port. You can set each pin to one of these four settings: default,
high, flow control, and Ready/Busy.
When you set the pin to high, it stays high as long as the printer
is powered up.
When you set the pin to flow control, the pin is high when the
printer status is ready. The pin is held low when the printer is
offline or if the buffer is full.
When you set the pin to Ready/Busy, the pin is high when the
printer status is ready. The pin is held low when the printer is in
one of these conditions:
Offline
Buffer full
No label stock
Ribbon fault
Label at strip pin
When you set the pin to default, it uses flow control if the serial
port is set for XON/XOFF protocol. If you are using Intermec
Standard protocol, the printer uses Ready/Busy.
User-Defined Protocol
The printer provides the capability to change protocol characters.
However, users may not define their own protocol. You can
substitute characters you want to use as protocol characters, but
the rules for the chosen protocol do not change. The printer does
not use any protocol characters that you replace with the NUL
character. One table of protocol characters exists. You may
redefine these characters to create a table that all of the protocols
can use. One possibility for the user to redefine protocol
characters might be the replacement of control characters with
printable characters.
