Print speed Print speed
The print speed (material feed) can be adapted to the combination of ribbon and ma-
terial in use to optimise the contrast intensity and the degree of blackening of the print
image.
Setting range: [2…16] inch/s; presetting: 8 inch/s
Feed speed Feed speed
The feed speed can be increased in areas with no print. This reduces the overall print
time, especially for long labels with very little printed surface.
When the print speed is changed, the feed speed is set equal to the print speed. If
a different feed speed is preferred, it must be set again.
Setting range: [2…12] inch/s; presetting: 8 inch/s
Material type Definition of the label material in use.
Settings: [endless, punched]
• Endless: The label material has no punches or reflex markings. The start of the
label is calculated by the set label length (PRINT PARAMETERS > Material length).
• Punched: The individual labels in the label material that is used have punches or
reflex markings that can be detected by the label sensor.
Only the "Punched" setting can be used for the ALX 73x.

bel.
