Although enabling this feature reduces print speed, it enhances the vertical
alignment of dots and produces cleaner, sharper bar codes and text. Choices
include the following:
•
Disable: The default. The printer will print all data in both directions
of the shuttle sweep (bidirectional printing). This choice produces
higher printing speed.
•
Enable: The printer will print all data in only one direction of the
shuttle sweep (unidirectional printing). This choice produces higher
print quality.
PMD (Paper Motion Detection) Fault
The PMD, or Paper Motion Detection, feature can be enabled or disabled. If
PMD is enabled and a paper jam occurs, an audible alarm beeps three times,
‘‘CLEAR PAPER JAM” appears on the message display, and the printer
stops printing. The default for this parameter is Enable. Disable PMD only if
special paper requires it.
CAUTION
Once PMD is disabled, paper motion is not monitored. If a paper jam
occurs, the printer ignores the condition and continues to print, possibly
causing severe damage to the printer.
Slow Paper Slew
This parameter affects the speed at which paper advances into the stacking
area of the printer. The speed may be slowed down by enabling this feature.
•
Disable: The default. The printer will slew and stack paper at maximum
speed.
•
Enable: Causes the paper to stack at a slower pace. This ensures that
certain forms will stack more neatly.
