indexing performance with
a resin-based ribbon
installed. The sensitivity of
this mode is adjustable with
the CALIBRATE mode.
CALIBRATE
Runs an index calibration,
and then replaces the index
data currently stored for
mode 3 with the new data.
The C Series printer uses
only this parameter, not
any of the other
parameters.
NOTE: Confirm that the
correct print media is loaded
before starting the
calibration.
Comments When using the VARIABLE INDEX SETTING modes
0, 1, or 2, send the command to the printer with
VARIABLE WRITE in a non-printing label format.
The use of VARIABLE WRITE is optional when using
the VARIABLE INDEX SETTING CALIBRATE
command. VARIABLE INDEX SETTING
CALIBRATE always writes its data to nonvolatile
RAM, with or without the use of VARIABLE WRITE.
Do not use this command in stored label formats.
The CALIBRATE mode runs an automatic
calibration routine that measures the opacity of the
currently loaded ribbon, labels, and backing, then
uses these values to set the index detector
sensitivity. This takes about 15 seconds in most
printers. The printer's READY light flashes during
calibration. The ready light will glow green if the
calibration is successful and red if the calibration is
unsuccessful. Following a successful calibration, the
printer automatically writes the new index
calibration to nonvolatile RAM.
