Notes:
· If energy applied to one dot, exceed the maximum value indicated on the above table, the print quality of
this dot may be definitively affected (usually makes a “light” print-out).
· If print cycle is less than 2.5 ms/line (above 50 mm/s) then maximum supply energy value is decreased.
For these applications, please contact A.P.S. for more information.
· When using double-ply paper or special low energy paper, please contact A.P.S. for more information.

The print optical density is then 1.0 minimum with a maximum variation of 0.3. This measurement is done
at the full black pattern by Macbeth densitometer RD-914. Full black pattern is defined as all dots printing
pattern (100% black area) printed under correct paper speed.

This condition satisfies the print density as defined in section 3.5
