Godex g300 ues operating instructions. Mode for automatically detecting label length and selecting print mode. Error messages
Godex G300 Positioned as a lightweight version of the Godex G500 label printer. This model is also reliable, durable and productive. But, having a smaller range of functions and a limited selection of options, it is an inexpensive version of the G500 series. There is no option to connect a cutter or separator, there is no way to expand the memory, there is no real time clock, but otherwise the Godex G300 is in no way inferior to its older brothers. This printer is designed for thermal and thermal transfer printing. It can work with different media, be it paper, fabric, nylon. Godex G300 also has the ability to print on
The new sensor that the Godex G300 is equipped with is installed in the center and covered with a cover from dirt and dust; it is a label edge sensor. The combination of “reflection” and “transmission” sensors with which the printer is equipped makes it possible to use labels with any substrate density. The advantage is that the position of the sensor can be adjusted. This will be appreciated by those who periodically encounter the use of labels of incorrect geometry. The printer will determine the size of the labels automatically; you only need to switch it to auto-touch mode, although this setting does not exclude self-determination label sizes, you just need to set them in the printing program. The built-in Ethernet module will help provide all the capabilities of a mid-class printer. You can control the Godex 300 remotely thanks to special program installed on your computer - Godex Net Setting.
Godex G300 compared to its predecessor, has powerful processor type ARM7 (166MHz), which allows our model to be 80% more productive. Automatically recognizing the control languages EZPL, GEPL, EZPL used in the Godex G300 model allows you to integrate the printer into any existing system. Simply install the Godex G300 in place of, for example, a failed one Zebra printer and everything will work without additional settings.
The developers of Godex made an effort when creating the G300, increasing the volume random access memory up to 16 MB, and flash memory up to 8 MB, bringing the model closer to industrial class. Loading materials is also very convenient. An advantage of the design of the model is the presence of a slot for tape on the back wall custom size. G300/G330 - designed for working together from 1C of any versions. Printing labels from the 1C program is done using standard Windows drivers.

Quick printer setup.
Before using the printer, carefully read the user manual, which is located on the included disk!
Mode for automatically detecting label length and selecting print mode:
1) Check the position of the mark of the moving label edge sensor, it must be in the correct position (hit the paper).2) With the printer turned off, press and hold the FEED key without releasing it.
3) While holding FEED, turn on the printer. It will beep 3 times. Wait for the LED READYwill flash Red andSTATUSlights up orange(the printer has entered calibration mode).
4) Now release the FEED key.
5) The printer will begin to push the label tape forward, first in steps of a few millimeters, and then run through about 3 empty labels, print a test page with current parameters, and the green “Ready” LED will light up.
As a result of these actions, the printer will determine the height of the label and, depending on the installed label tape, the printer’s printing mode.
Selecting a printing mode (Thermal / Thermal transfer printing).
The printer can be used in one of two printing modes:Thermal printing: printing is carried out on thermal labels (thermal paper)
Thermal transfer printing: printing is carried out on any medium using an ink ribbon (ribbon) using the thermal transfer method.
If you are using software QLabel or GoLabel, set the printing mode in the printer settings in this software. In this case, there is no need to select a mode using the described procedure, otherwise:
To switch the printer from mode to mode, use the following. sequence of actions:
1) Turn off the printer and press and hold the FEED key.
2) While holding FEED, turn on the printer, it will beep 3 times. When READY will flash red and STATUS will light red - the printer will enter Thermal Print mode. Release FEED.
The printer will automatically print “NOW IS DIRECT THERMAL (DT MODE)” – the printer is in thermal mode.
3) While holding FEED, turn on the printer and after 3 beeps, wait until READY will flash orange and STATUS will flash red – the printer will enter Thermal Transfer Printing mode.
Release FEED. The printer will print "NOW IS THERMAL TRANSFER (TT MODE)", which means the printer is in thermal transfer mode.
Interface setupEthernet carried out using the GoLabel program. A description of the Ethernet module settings can be downloaded from following link: http://www.scancode.ru/files/item/3/742/
The best test printer is printing from the programQlabelorGoLabel.
If printing works correctly from this program, but not from others, then check the settings of the printer driver and other programs!
ATTENTION!
Connecting and disconnecting the printer from the computer is carried out only when the printer power is OFF!
Clean the printer's print head with a soft, lint-free flannel using special means(as an option, technical alcohol is acceptable) with the printer power OFF!
To print labels from the 1C 7.7 program, use the component available on the attached disk. To print from 1C versions 8.X, use Windows printer drivers.

Godex G300/G330 are desktop thermal/thermal transfer printers for printing barcode, text, graphics on a variety of labels or continuous media. Printers are positioned for medium loads in terms of print volume.
Series thermal transfer printers barcode G300/G330 - is a lightweight version of the popular G500/G530 series.
Among the main differences are:
- Completely redesigned circuitry, which uses powerful CPU type ARM7 (166MHz), giving an increase overall performance approximately by 80%, in comparison with previous models.
- Increased RAM capacity (up to 16MB) and flash memory (up to 8MB), as in industrial printer models.
- 3 programming languages built into flash memory (EZPL, GEPL, EZPL) with function automatic selection, allow you to use any software designed for printers Zebra/Eltron.
- Ethernet module connections (RJ45) as standard.
Label printers G300/G330 are designed for printing on simple thermal and thermal transfer labels, on paper, polypropylene, fabric, nylon and other media, using the appropriate type of thermal transfer ribbon.
Printers are recommended for use in shops, supermarkets or warehouses.
The printer body is made of impact-resistant plastic.
It is possible to select a printer model with a print head standard definition 203 dpi (G300), as well as increased resolution 300 dpi (G330).
Otherwise, these models are absolutely identical.
On the back wall of the printer there is a special slot through which non-standard printed material can be inserted outwards. For example, if rolls of labels of large diameters are used, it is possible to install this roll on a special external holder for large rolls (ordered additionally), and then the tape is passed through this slot outward.
These models use a new "Auto-Adaptive" label edge sensor,
which is installed motionlessly in the center, and which is closed with a transparent lid
to protect against debris, and has an improved recognition system
large quantity printing materials.
The label edge sensor has 2 operating modes: “reflective” or “transmission”.
The combination of these modes allows you to use labels with any substrate density, as well as labels with a “black mark”. The size of the labels can be set in the printing program, or you can switch the printer to auto-touch mode, and it will determine the size (height) of the labels inserted into it.
Built-in Ethernet module with RJ45 connector - provides everything functionality classic print server.
Remote control and configuration of the print server is carried out using the Godex Net Setting utility, which is installed on your PC.
Due to the fact that the G300/G330 printers are positioned as a lightweight analogue of the G500/G530 series, they therefore have a simpler design, affordable price, and a limited selection of options and additional accessories. Unlike the G500/G530 series, this series cannot attach a cutter or separator, does not have an RTC, and cannot install a memory expansion module.
G300/G330 - designed to work together with 1C of any version.
Labels are printed from the 1C program using a standard Windows driver.
