Startup Guide Flow

When you turn on the product for the first time after purchase, a password entry screen will appear. After entering the password, the startup guide will be displayed. The startup guide is a function to help you through the initial product settings (language selection, regional settings, loading media, etc.).

You can cancel the startup guide and perform the configuration later from the menu.

• If you enabled the NTP function, the time zone settings screen appears. • Select choices for each item with the / buttons, and apply them with the button () or button. • Selecting a choice opens the next screen. To return to the previous screen, press the button ().

1.	Press the (power) button on the operator panel until the LED indicator lights blue to power on the product.

The startup guide screen appears.

2.	A password entry screen will appear.

• The password entry screen is displayed only on the first startup when using firmware build version 7.5.0 or later. • The initial password specifications for this product vary depending on the shipping period. ◦ Models that include a password label A different initial password is printed on the label for each device. ◦ Models that do not include a password label The default password is "PCB serial number (8 characters consisting of uppercase letters and numbers) + user." Please enter the "+" as a symbol. You can confirm the PCB serial number by executing [Configure List] from the [Tools] > [Test Print] menu. If you do not know the password, please contact your SATO technical support. • For safe use of this product, please change the password. Go to [System] > [Password] > [Change Password] and set a new password. • When you shut down the device from the password entry screen that appears the first time you power it on after purchase, please note that it may take about one minute to complete.

3.	Select a display language.

4.	Select the region to set for the time zone.

(Appears if you enabled the NTP function.)

5.	Select the city to set for the time zone.

(Appears if you enabled the NTP function.)

6.	Configure the communication protection compatibility settings.

If you select [Change to old], the settings are updated in bulk to the legacy specifications.

In firmware build version 7.5.0 and later, more secure communication settings are enabled by default. Therefore, when connecting to older network devices or systems, communication may not be possible.

[Keep current] * Recommended

Choose the more secure settings. If communication issues occur, modify the relevant settings individually as necessary.

[Change to old]

The communication settings will be changed in bulk to the legacy specifications. While this increases compatibility, it reduces the overall security level.

For the configuration items and setting values related to communication protection compatibility, please refer to the table below.
