Internal Encoder (Fixed Printing Speed) Setup
Tools required: Metric ruler.
To setup an internal encoder with a fixed printing speed:
(1) Create a test label.
(2) Select the
Label
tab in the label creator side menu and select
Settings
.
(3) Scroll down to the
Width
setting and make a note of the value.
(4) Select the
icon to send the label to print.
(5) Select
Home > Production line setup > Line movement
.
(6) Select the
Encoder input
drop down setting and select
Internal
.
(7) Select the
Speed (mm/s)
setting and enter the print speed in millimetres per second.
(8) Run the production line to make a test print.
(9) Measure the width of the test print.
(10) If the width of the test print is not equal to the width noted at
, adjust the
Speed
(mm/s)
setting and make another test print. Repeat this step until the width of the test print
is equal to the width setting to ensure that the internal encoder is correctly calibrated. The
equation below can be used to calculate the correct
Speed (mm/s)
value.
(11) If the label width needs to be adjusted after the
Speed (mm/s)
setting has been set, adjust
the
Global
stroke pitch goal (mm/stroke)
setting to change the distance between print
strokes (Default value: 0.43mm).
Note:
A print stroke is the line of ink drops which make up each printed character as shown
in the illustration below.
End of procedure.
New speed (mm/s) value = N
Old speed (mm/s) value = O
Printed label width = P
Label width value = E
N = O x (P/E)
