10.4 Printing area
In order to print ticket containing only one notch and to not overlay printing to a notch (that will make it useless for the
next alignment), it is important to well calibrate:
•
The height of the printing area of ticket according to the inter-notch distance
•
The value for the paper recovery after a cut
The following
fi
gure shows an example of tickets with “Notch Distance” set to 0:

A
“Non-printable area” of 3mm generated by:
“Distance between cutter/printing head” - “Value for the paper recovery after a cut”
where:
“Distance between cutter/printing head” =
30mm (
fi
xed distance)
“Value for the paper recovery after a cut” =
27mm (
fi
xed distance)
H
Distance between the
fi
rst and the last print line, called “Height of the printing area”.
L
Distance between an edge of the notch and the next one, called “Inter-notch distance”.
D
Automatic feed for alignment at the next notch.
To use all the notches on the card, you must comply with the following equation:

The height of the printing area (H) can be increased to make no progress on alignment (D = 0) but no further.
