Keys: , , , , , , , , ,
Label parameters Indication of label parameters in Volt.
A: Indication of minimum value.
B: Indication of difference between minimum and maximum value.
C: Indication of trigger level. The value is ascertained while measuring and can be changed.
Key:
Photocell configuration This function enables definition of photocell levels.
In case of problems while positioning or measuring of label, levels for label photocell can be
set manually. Make sure that a large hub as possible (label >3 V, gap <1 V) is set.
Key:
Photocell parameters TLS: Indication of transmission photocell level in Volt.
RLS: Indication of reflexion photocell level in Volt.
SLS: Indication of peel off photocell level in Volt.
RC: Indication of transfer ribbon photocell status (either 0 or 1).
H: Indication of printhead position.
0 = printhead down
1 = printhead up
Key:
Paper counter: D: Indication of printhead attainment in meters.
G: Indication of printer attainment in meters.
Key:
Heater resistance
To achieve a high print quality, the indicated Ohm value must be set after an exchange of
printhead.
Key:
Printhead temperature
Indication of printhead temperature. The printhead temperature corresponds normally to the
room temperature. In case the maximum printhead temperature is exceeded, the current print
order is interrupted and an error message appears at the printer display.
Key:
Motor Ramp
This function is often used for high printing speed as the tearing of transfer ribbon can be
prevented.
The higher the '++' value is set, the slower the feeding motor is accelerated.
The smaller the '
− −' value is set, the faster the feeding motor is decelerated.
