4.1.2 Print Control
HEAT
10 (0-30)
Controls the printhead ‘burn-time’. See
Section 2.1.1 for more on print quality control.
PRINT SPEED
2-12 in/sec
Controls the rate of label movement during the
printing process; see Appendix C.
FEED SPEED
2-12 in/sec
Controls the rate of label movement between
printing areas; see Appendix C.
REVERSE SPEED
2-6 in/sec
Controls the rate of label movement during
backup positioning for start of print, cutting or
present distance; see Appendix C.
ROW OFFSET
00.00in (0-99.99)
Shifts the vertical start of print position. This
is the user setting for row adjustment.
COLUMN OFFSET
00.00 in (0-99.99)
Shifts the left-justified horizontal start of print
position to the right.
LABEL WIDTH
1.00-4.16 inches
Sets the maximum limit for the printable
surface width. Images or data beyond this limit
will not print; see Appendix C.
PRESENT DISTANCE
0.00 in (0-4.00)
Specifies an additional amount to advance the
label after printing. When the next label
format is received, the printer backfeeds to the
start position. Only the last label of the batch
will be presented if the present sensor is not
enabled.
CUSTOM ADJUSTMENTS
These factory adjustments independently
change listed parameters, negating slight
mechanical differences sometimes evident
when multiple printers share the label formats.
DARKNESS
XX (1-64)
Controls the printhead strobe time to fine-
tune the HEAT setting.
ROW ADJUST
XXX DOTS (1-128)
Shifts the vertical start of print position
upward in dots to fine-tune the ROW
OFFSET setting; see Appendix C.
Note: A Positioning Calibration must be
performed before this parameter takes
effect; see Section 5.2.
COLUMN ADJUST
XXX DOTS (1-128)
Shifts both the horizontal start of print
position and the LABEL WIDTH termination
point to the right in dots to fine-tune the
COLUMN OFFSET setting; see Appendix C.
PRESENT ADJUST
XXX DOTS (1-128)
Adjusts the label stopping position in dots to
fine-tune the PRESENT DISTANCE setting;
see Appendix C.
