How to set and Evolis printer’s cleaning cycle frequency

The reason you may want to set the printer to stop after a definite number of cards is to protect the print head warranty from being voided.

Use the Pcp command through the Direct Command to printer in the driver:

Pcp;p1;p2

p1:          E: Enable / D: Disable

p2:          Value to set

By setting a value and enabling this function, the printer will stop after the defined value.

 

To start the printing again, a cleaning cycle must be done.

Pcp;E;800    The printer will stop after 800 cards inserted

Pcp;D             The printer will work as usual

    Typo! Sorry for being critical.

    There is a hard return that is missing and is thus A LOT harder to understand.
    Orig:

    Should read:
