Addressing media 3. Addressing media Adjusting the support height The DA615 operates with single-sheet feed and uses a band for transporting the media. The DA615 support can be raised or lowered by up to 43 mm in order to adjust its level to adjacent equipment. To do this, turn the rotary knob (5) in the direction of the arrow (see diagram below). The set distance can be read off from the right-hand scale (arrow). \text\etd\DA615/address 3.
Addressing media Setting the print-head spacing When printing media up to 1 mm in thickness, you can work with the smallest spacing between print-head and contact plate. Turn the rotary button (4) in the direction of the arrow as far as the left stop (see left diagram on the next page). If the print is smudged or if you are using thick media such as magazines, the spacing must be increased. Turn the rotary knob (4) clockwise until the medium (up to 10 mm) fits into the gap (d).
Addressing media Hold-down set 4 – 1 must be replaced completely by set 7 – 10 (Accessories!). The order numbers for the hold-down units are given in the variant list. Switch the printer off ! Remove the two hexagon-socket screws (see arrow in left diagram) of each hold-down unit and replace them by the corresponding variants (see table). Ensure correct assignment of the hold-down units to the print-head mounts! Media feed direction def Print-head mount H1 H2 H3 H4 Media feed direction Def. Opp.
Addressing media Lateral guides Two lateral guides are fitted on each side of the printer (media-feed and eject sides). The following figure illustrates their positions. The broken lines indicate appliances connected before and after the printer. The chapter entitled “Accessories” gives an overview of the guide brackets which can be ordered to suit your individual format sizes if those supplied with the printer are not sufficient.
Addressing media Positioning the media Each feed side is equipped with two paper light barriers (P-Li) for measuring the print position (see diagram below). The medium must always completely cover one of the two paper light barriers in its transport path! Positioning print areas Each of the two print-head pairs H1-H2 and H3-H4 has its own print area (DB1-2 and DB3-4) and can be separately adjusted with respect to the other one. Both print-head pairs have an adjustment scale (Sk in the diagram below).
Addressing media If you want to use the two print areas separately (cf. right-hand diagram below), you must make sure that a specific minimum offset (V) exists between the print-head pairs in order to prevent the contact rollers smudging the ink or any overlap of the print formats. 12-line print format Two individual print formats There are several ways of adjusting the print-head pairs. The following table shows how each offset affects the distance between the print formats.
Addressing media Pinwheels To avoid smudging of ink by the contact rollers, simply replace the hold-down units with contact rollers positioned immediately after the print-heads by equivalent ones with pinwheels. To do so, replace hold-down set 3 – 4 by set 5 – 6 (Accessories!). The order numbers of these hold-down units are given in the variant list. If the printer is set for the opposite transport direction, hold-down set 9 – 10 must be replaced by set 11 – 12 (Accessories!).
Addressing media Adjusting the print position Before inserting the medium, you must decide how you wish to position the address on your medium and how this can be done within the print area of the printer. Address-block rotation The direction of printing depends on the size of your print area. If the cartridge cannot reach the desired upper margin, then the address block must be rotated by 180° together with its left margin. – You can rotate the address block in programming mode (see Sect.
Addressing media Print test – Place a sheet onto the feed side. – Press the “TEST” key. The sheet is pulled in, the test address is printed out and the sheet is ejected. Assuming that the test shows the print-out to be correctly positioned, press the “START” key to return to on-line status. ☞ \text\etd\DA615/address Never touch the internal parts of the printer while it is running ! 3.

Printer functions You can lock the setting you have made immediately by using the “A/∀“ key to call the “SETTING LOCKED“ option and selecting between “yes“ and “no“ with the same key. The set configurations are retained when the printer is switched off. In the "SetD" option in the “Service” menu you can print out the active configuration (see "Service" description). After a works initialization via the "PROG" key (at switch on) all configurations are set to the default setting.
Printer functions Fonts In selecting your fonts, refer to the section entitled “Fonts”. Thirteen different fonts are installed in the printer. If more fonts are present, only the first 25 are shown. The following sequence is observed: works fonts soft fonts. Print Quality You may select between six print qualities: The numbers specify the number of print dots per character. The higher the number, the better the print quality.
Printer functions The numbers of the postal code should be sent in the last line of the address. The postal code cannot have more than nine digits, but must have at least five. As the number sequence search starts from the end of the address, the last nine digits of a sequence are converted. You may add a separating hyphen or other printable character between the fifth and sixth digits.
Printer functions Char. Spacing You can change the character spacing from 0 to 90 dots by inserting additional blanks. Char. Height You can increase the character height to up to six times the standard height without changing the width. Char. Width You can increase the character width to up to six times the standard width without changing the height. Line Spacing You can change the spacing between the lines from 1 to 10 lines per inch. Orientation The address block may be rotated by 180°.
Printer functions Character Set National character sets are available with their own special characters in each language (see character sets in the Annex). Transport Direction Change of media transport direction Def. (from right ➔ left) Opp. (from left ➔ right). The transport direction can be changed only if you replace the holddown sets (cf. Section 3). The default setting of the transport direction is from right to left. Head12 Correct.
Printer functions Setting locked You may "lock" each configuration individually. This means that the corresponding configuration cannot be changed via printer instructions. If you select the "yes" option, your configuration is locked and the corresponding printer instructions are ignored. In the “SETD“ service program, this setting is clearly identified by “!!!“ (see the sample print-out on page 5.13). The status of the active configuration is shown on the display.
Printer functions Delimiter < > Individual page feed on/off When the delimiter is activated, the two print characters "< >" are recognized as the beginning and end of a page print with paper ejection. This means that you should set the character "<" before a piece of text that should go onto a new page and the character ">" after the text, before the page is to be ejected.

7. Fonts Terminology A font is a collection of characters and symbols with the same font type and spacing, the same size (height), line thickness and character position Font type A font type is a set of characters and symbols of a specific design. Cour Helv TmsRm Serif or sans serif font type Serifs are small cross-lines above or below characters (known as "feet" in the Antiqua fonts). Cour is a Serif font type. Font types without serifs are known as Sans Serif. Helv is a Sans Serif font type.
Fonts Spacing Fixed spacing Spacing refers to the relative print density between the letters of a font. The character spacing is either fixed or proportional. With fixed character spacing, each letter of a font assumes the same width and has the same spacing to the adjacent letters. Cour and LetGot are fonts with fixed spacing. Fixed spacing between characters Proportional spacing With proportional character spacing, the spacing depends on the width of each letter.
Fonts Dot size Dot size (character height) refers to the height of an upper-case printed latter. The dot size is measured in pica points. One point corresponds to 1/72 of an inch. The heights of both types of font, those with fixed and those with proportional character spacing, are measured in pica points. 1 72 dot s = 1 i nch Pica dot 48 dots (inch) 24 dots 12 dots 8 dots 0 Underlining A piece of text may be highlighted by underlining. The otherwise uniform typeface remains unchanged.
Fonts Character spacing To bring single words out more clearly, you can expand the spacing between letters and words without changing the character size itself. This E x a m p l e is printed with expanded spacing. Quality The term quality refers to the quality of the printout. 150D Use 150D for fast printing with low ink consumption. This corresponds to a pitch of 150x150 dpi (dots/inch). 300F Use 300F for your standard correspondence.
Fonts Character sets A character set consists of characters and symbols that contain all elements of a language or subject (country-specific characters), including punctuation marks and numerals. 7-bit character set A 7-bit character set corresponds to the definitions of the "International Standards Organization" (ISO) and the 'American Standard Code for Information Interchange' (ASCII). The 7-bit character set contains 128 characters. An example of a 7-bit character set is shown below.
Fonts Selecting fonts for your addresses ☞ The fonts are selected either by software or by printer commands. Fonts can be used selectively to give an address a specific appearance. Select the fonts that correspond to the message that you want your document to express. Serif fonts The example below shows an address using Cour12 font: Dr. Lemuel Gulliver 104 Churchill St. Cambridge CB8 5TD Sans serif fonts The example below shows an address using Helv12 font: Dr. Lemuel Gulliver 104 Churchill St.

C. Glossary ASCll: Character spacing ASCll stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. The printer commands used in this User Guide are entered with ASCII characters. However, decimal or hexadecimal characters may also be used. All fonts have either a constant or a variable character spacing. In a font with a constant spacing, all characters have the same width irrespective of their size.
Annex C - Glossary Font: Paper sensor: A font is a collection of characters and symbols of the same print type and spacing, the same size (height), line thickness and print orientation. Fonts can be installed inside the printer or loaded externally via font cartridges. This is required for maintaining the top margin value and for stopping the printer in the event of a paper jam. The medium must always be transported over the paper sensor.
Annex C - Glossary Printer driver: The driver converts the printer commands entered via software into instruction codes for the printer. It must be adapted to both the software and the printer. Print-head cradle: The print head is attached to a movable cradle. Print-head holder: This holds the print head securely in place. Print-head spacing: This affects the print quality. If the spacing is too big, the print is unclear. If it is too small, the ink can smudge.

Annex E -Accessories Pinwheels To avoid smudging of ink by the contact rollers, simply replace the hold-down units with contact rollers positioned immediately after the print-heads by equivalent ones with pinwheels. To do so, replace hold-down set 3 – 4 by set 5 – 6 (Accessories!). The order numbers of these hold-down units are given in the variant list. If the printer is set for the opposite transport direction, hold-down set 9 – 10 must be replaced by set 11 – 12 (Accessories!).
