NOTE:
•
If the print height is different from the maximum, the following three parameters are closely
interrelated: the turning angle and the print parameters
Text width
and
Conv speed
. Any
change to each of them causes rows of text to look slanted left or right. In order to ensure that
characters are printed in the vertical direction, follow the steps specified below:
−
at first adjust the turning angle of the print head so that the real print height (the distance
from the lowest to the highest dots jetted out of the print head) equals the setting of the print
parameter
Text height
;
−
then modify the print parameters
Text width
and
Conv speed
in order to „straighten” up
rows of text to be printed.
•
In order to check for correct settings of the print parameters use the function
Check
parameters
– see section
. If any irregularities occur, an
analysis of the error report (displayed in the
Info
tab sheet) helps correct the wrong setting of a
given print parameter.
•
The print height cannot be adjusted in an infinitely variable way by changing the distance
between the print head and object to be labelled.
•
The final precise height of a text to be printed with the print head turned by a certain angle
depends on the following:
−
the diameter of nozzles in the print head,
−
the type of ink,
−
the pressure of ink inside the ink system,
−
the setting of the print parameter
Dot size
,
−
absorptive capacity of the surface on which prints are to be made.

Character Resolution
The parameter decides on visibility of characters of the text printed. It defines resolution of the text,
The resolution is given as a number of
rows/metre
. The visual effect of a change in the parameter
Text width
is a change in the width of characters and the length of the entire text.
The settings of the parameter can vary between
5
and
4000
with the increment of
1
.
Fig. 3.3.9.4.
NOTE:
Values of the print parameter
Text width
are limited not only by the range of settings
given above. The current value of the parameter is controlled by the control program and
can be affected by settings of other print parameters. The system is automatically
protected against an excessively high print rate being set. Therefore it may happen that
some settings appear wrong after the correctness of the parameters has been checked –
see section
!
Intensity of Ink Drops
There is a need for changing the intensity of ink drops during printing. This parameter affects the size
(volume) of ink droplets jetted out of the print head. If the intensity increases, the diameter of ink dots
and the saturation of the colour in the print also increase.
The settings of the
Dot size
parameter range from
0
to
10
with the interval of
1
.
