Receipt print density
Selectable from levels 1 to 13 (70% ∼ 130%) (initial setting: level 7)
Depending on the paper type, it is recommended to set the print density as shown in the table
below for the best print quality.
• Usually, the number of head energizing parts does not need to be changed.
• The maximum print speed (300 mm/s) can be performed only when one-part energizing
is selected.
• Be sure to install the roll paper guide (model: PG-58II) when you select the 58 mm paper
width. (See "Changing the Paper Width" on page 44.)
• Because some parts of the print head and the autocutter contact the platen and they
may become worn out in 58 mm printing, once you change the paper width from 80 mm
to 58 mm, you cannot change it back to 80 mm.
Original Paper Type Density Level
AF50KS-E 4 (85%)
TF50KS-E, P220AGB-1 5 (90%)
P350 6 (95%)
TF60KS-E, PD150R, PD160R, PD190R, KT48F20, KT55F20,F5041 7 (100%)
P300, P310 8 (105%)
• If the print density is set to a darker level, printing speed may be reduced.
• If the print density is set to a darker level, paper dust accumulates on the print head and
print may be faint. For information on how to clean the thermal head, see "Cleaning the
Thermal Head" on page 106.
• The print density can be set with DIP switches (2-3/2-4) or the customized value. (See
"Selecting the Print Density (DIP Switches 2-3/2-4)" on page 51.) The initial setting of the
customized value is “Depends on the DIP switch settings.” If the customized value is
changed, the value set with the customized value is enabled.
