Chapter 3  Using the Printer Driver

Basic Settings

Select the [Basic Settings] tab.

Resolution:

Sets the resolution.

Printing Speed:

Sets the printing speed.

If the print speed is too fast when printing a large bitmap with a thermal 
printer, the data may not be received in time and the printer may pause 
paper feeding. In this case, print irregularities may occur in the bitmap.

Color irregularities can be reduced by changing the printing speed from 
1st (fast) to 2nd (slightly slower) or 3rd (slower) so that printing takes 
place smoothly without stopping.

Paper Reduction:

Sets paper reduction.

You can save blank parts of paper that have no print data. Printing takes 
place based on standard page sizes (A4, A5, etc.). For this reason, when a 
receipt is printed, a fixed length of paper is fed regardless of whether 
there is print data, and paper may be wasted. Paper Reduction can be 
enabled to stop the printer from feeding blank parts of the paper before 
and after the print data so as to save paper.
