High Pack Rate Mode
SmartDate X60 transfers ink from the ribbon directly onto the substrate by means of
a thermal transfer printhead. In this mode the ink removed from the ink ribbon will be
equal in size to the printed image on the substrate.
For example, a 2 mm long print will use 2 mm of ribbon.
This is the normal running mode for SmartDate X60 and will usually achieve the best
print quality results. SmartDate X60 printers use Digital Ribbon Management (DRM) this
means that the processor is constantly monitoring the ribbon movement.
Digital Ribbon Advance (DRA) means that the gaps between each print is kept to
a minimum. This is achieved by the way the printers move the ribbon forwards and
backwards using the waste ribbon for acceleration.
The maximum print speed for this mode is 700 mm/sec. (Intermittent Mode)
The maximum print speed for this mode is 1000 mm/sec. (Continuous Mode)
High Pack rate mode offers printing at the fastest possible rate at the highest quality
level. This is the closest equivalent to the outdated Normal mode. The difference is that
High Pack Rate mode can tune the acceleration times in accordance to the maximum
substrate speed the printer is expected to print on.
Important: Obtaining the best performance therefore demands entering an appropriate
value for this into the Max Substrate Speed setting.
The exact operation of High Pack Rate mode is depicted in the diagram below.
