Select the print speed in IPS (inches per second). If print quality is important, reduce the
print speed - a lower print speed increases the print quality of labels. Use premium
supplies when printing at high speeds.
Select To Select To
2.5 IPS Print at 2.5 IPS. 10.0 IPS Print at 10.0 IPS.
4.0 IPS Print at 4.0 IPS. 12.0 IPS Print at 12.0 IPS.
6.0 IPS
8.0 IPS
Print at 6.0 IPS.
Print at 8.0 IPS.
Default Print formats with serial bar codes at 2.5 IPS
and formats with parallel bar codes at 6.0 IPS.
Print Speed Considerations with RFID
The RFID settings in Easy Setup (and the RFID Printer Setup Utility) are based on
encoding 96-bits of EPC data with a lock code. If your RFID data is more complex than
96-bits of EPC data with a lock code, you may need to decrease the printer’s speed in
non-stop encode mode. The following examples may require a decreased print speed:
♦
encoding 96-bits of EPC data and programming user memory
♦
encoding more than 96-bits of EPC data with a lock code
♦
encoding more than 96-bits of EPC data and programming user memory
When using Easy Setup to configure the printer for RFID supplies, the print speed may be
decreased.
For example, some inlays encode better at slower speeds, so if the printer is
set for 8.0 ips, Easy Setup may change the print speed to use 4.0 ips instead.
The amount of programmable EPC data, user memory, access password, and lock code
data varies by print speed and RFID chip. If the printer cannot program all the RFID data
within the allotted time, an error occurs.
Recommended Maximum Print Speeds
If you change the speed, you must resend your formats or turn off the printer and back on
before the change takes effect. If you change the speed
in offline mode
, turn off the
printer then turn it back on before the change takes effect.
