Print Speed Selection
The factory default Print Speed is 6 IPS (300 DPI) or 8 IPS (203 DPI). This setting will work well with most good quality
ticket stock. If faster print speeds are required you will need to obtain a faster thermally responsive ticket stock (see section
9.1.2) and change the Print Energy Table from "Normal" to "Alternate" to increase the print speed. This setting will allow you
to print at 8 IPS (300 DPI) or 10 IPS (203 DPI). Refer to the EEPROM selection method in Section 4.5.2.7. The selected
Energy Level, Energy Table, and the resulting maximum Print Speed will be displayed on the printer’s F0 printer status report
ticket print-out.

Is a Printer Driver Required?

If you are using the FGL firmware, you may or may not need a driver, depending on your application and operating system.
Refer to section 2.3 for a summary of the advantages of each configuration. Refer to section 2.4.1 to determine the proper
model numbers. Go to the website to obtain the correct driver, if required, as indicated by this table: 16.
