Heat level Heating value for compensating for the differing thermal behavior of
printheads. Changing this value is then especially necessary if the
printing intensity has changed after replacing the printhead.

To adapt the printing intensity when using different media, print
speeds or printing contents, you should change the heat level in the
software.
The settings of configuration and software are added together.
The Heat level setting also affects the test printouts.
