Ribbon End Point
This parameter adjusts the point at which the system will declare the ribbon
as being expended. The life count will always be from 100% to 0%, but if a
darker setting is selected 0% will be reached more quickly. If a lighter setting
is selected, the system will extend the time it takes to reach 0%. The range of
values are as follows:
v
Lighter -4 (the default)
v
Darker +1 through Darker +6
v
Normal
v
Lighter -1 through Lighter -10
Note: This value can be adjusted at any time and the display will
automatically adjust to show the correct percentage relative to the new
end point.
Save Current Values
This option allows you to save your custom sets to meet different print job
requirements. This eliminates the need to change the parameter settings for
each new job.
The custom sets are stored in NVRAM-they will not be lost if you power off
the printer.
Factory default is a factory-preset custom set; it cannot be changed or saved.
IMPORTANT: A new custom set will overwrite an existing custom set if the
PROTECT CUSTOM SETS parameter is disabled (for
example, a new Custom Set 4 will overwrite an existing
Custom Set 4). See the “Protect Custom Sets” in the IBM
Infoprint 6500 Line Matrix Printers User’s Manual .
Change Power On Set
You can specify which of the custom sets will be the power-on custom set.
The printer will power on with the factory set values or with one of the
customized configurations.
