tion. For long objects (such as pipes,
hoses, cables, strips) you can set the
repeated printing parameter to
Continuous
. This is possible after the
Impulse generator
parameter is set
to
Fixed speed
.
The interval between
texts is set with the
Rep. distance
parameter - see further below.
Print Delay
The
Print delay
parameter defines
the distance between the point at
which printing is released (with re-
lease button
) and the point at which
printing should start. The distance is
given as a number of empty rows to
be timed after printing has been re-
leased until real printing starts. With it
you can adjust the position of a print
in relation to a reference point, for
example the edge of an object.
The settings of the
Print delay
pa-
rameter range from
0
to
9999
with the
increment of
1
.
Distance between Texts
The
Rep. distance
parameter defines
the distance between the beginnings
of the texts that are printed repeatedly
(
Text repetitions
>1). The distance is
specified as a number of vertical rows
(timed by a timing system).
The settings of the
Rep. distance
parameter range from
0
to
9999
with
the increment of
1
.

If the distance set with the
Rep.
distance
parameter is smaller than
the text length (given as a number of
rows), then the texts will be printed
one after another.
Row Repetition
The parameter defines how many
times printing of each vertical row
should be repeated.
It is used for
intensifying the prints on porous sur-
faces, which soak up ink heavily, on
which printed characters are poorly
visible due to surface granulation, if
the characters are built of ink dots of
the same sizes.
Intelligent control of hand
movement
The printer system controls the print-
ing process and makes it impossible
to produce a misprint should the op-
erator’s hand or the printer be with-
drawn by chance. The control is
enabled if the
Shaft direction
pa-
rameter is set to
Compatible with
printing direction
or
Contrary to
printing direction
(depending on whether
objects are labelled from left to right or from right
to left)
. The system detects every with-
drawal of the printer automatically and
suspends printing. After the printer
has returned to its proper position,
