The above print speed values are based on the following: 24 V, 25°C, standard density level. Printing speed is
switched automatically in accordance with the voltage applied to the product and head temperature conditions.
The maximum printing speed values above may not be attainable due to command combinations.
If the data transfer speed is lower than the maximum printing speed, the printing speed changes, which can cause
uneven print density and non-uniform feed pitch.
A slow data transfer speed can also result in intermittent printing, white banding in graphics or other problems.
