Printhead Prole
When selecting the option "Printhead prole", a diagram will be printed which shows the resistance values for the
single printhead dots. This printout makes it possible to see the status of the printhead.
When a dot is damaged or defective its resistance value increases. When this error occurs, it causes white lines in
the print image from top to bottom. In some cases, the white line could cause an invalid scan of certain barcodes.
To print the printhead prole, load media (labels, continuous paper) and a transfer ribbon (if applicable), which
extends over the entire print width of the printer.
NOTICE!
With "Printhead prole", the printer will not sense any label gaps, and will print non-stop.
Continuous paper works best for the prints.
