Setting the Print Contrast
The print contrast controls print darkness on your supply. The range is -699 to +699; the
default is 0. Having the correct print contrast setting is important because it affects how
well your bar codes scan and how long your printhead lasts. High contrast settings may
require additional printhead cleaning, create bar code growth, and/or lead to reduced
scanning.
