Printing method
Standard (Single scan)
When there are multiple printing lines,
multiple lines are printed in turn.
Standard (Interlaced),
Dot mixed interlaced
Multiple lines are printed at the same
time.
Mixed single scan and interlaced
Printing is done while switching
between single scan and interlaced for
each column.

* The conditions where "Character width" can be set to "0" are described in Table below.
When "Character width" is set to "0" and "
Product speed matching
" is set to "
Encoder
".
(i) The conveyor speed is detected by the encoder and the character width is set and fixed by that
speed detected. If the print object is slipped on the conveyor or its transfer speed fluctuates
substantially while the print object is passing the object sensor and the printing is completed,
the print start delay variation or the character width variation is expected. Please be sure to
conduct test printing and confirm whether there is any variation of print start delay or the
character width. If the substantial variation is observed, please set the Character width to 2 or
more.
(ii) The item on "Adjust printer parameters" screen are not available.
(iii) The conveyor speed is caculated print by print. Therefore "Print start delay".
(iii) The conveyor speed is caculated print by print. Therefore "Print start delay" will become
longer by 30 scans than that of "Encoder" due to its calculation time.
(iv) The number of print formats will be four (4) or less.
