5.3.10 SP2-41, 2-42: THERMAL HEAD ENERGY CONTROL
2-41: The default is 7%. This means that during normal printing mode, the thermal
head energy is 93% of the maximum possible (100 – 7).
2-42: The default is 10%. This means that in economy printing mode, the thermal
head energy is reduced by another 10%. With the default settings, this
means that the thermal head energy is 83% of maximum power (100-7-10).
5.3.11 SP2-60: BOLD MODE: LETTER MODE ONLY
Makes a bold outline of a letter-mode image.
5.3.12 SP2-95: PAPER TABLE STANDBY POS.
High : The paper table after printing is moved to a higher position than the standard
position. This will reduce the time for starting the first print when
continuously making masters.
Low : The standard position
NOTE: If SP2-95 is “high”, the machine goes to the standard position in the
following situations.
•
When the master end indicator lights and a message is displayed
•
When a master eject jam (B jam location indicator) is displayed
•
When a master feed jam (D jam location indicator) is displayed
•
When the paper height sensor is actuated immediately after the main
switch is turned on.
5.3.13 SP2-100: MAKE MASTER WITHOUT PRINTING
This function wraps a blank master around the drum. The ink on the drum may dry
up at the following times:
•
The machine is not used for a long time.
•
The customer changes to a color drum that has not been used recently.
This might affect the print quality (Poor image: ghost image of the previous print).
Wrap a blank master around the drum after you print, to prevent ghost images of
previous prints when the machine is not used for a long time.
Procedure :
1) Access SP2-100 (Make master without printing). Then press “OK”.
2) Press the “Start” key while holding down the “#” key.
