Setting the Approximate Sensitivity Rating for Your
Media
You only need to enter the first digit to set the approximate rating for your
media. The first digit (in the hundreds place) designates the range of sensitivity
for your media. The second and third digits are used to fine-tune the printhead
energy to improve print quality and label darkness. The approximate
sensitivity ratings are the first numbers listed for each group in the media
sensitivity setting table.
Fine-Tuning the Sensitivity Rating
The sensitivity rating on each roll of thermal transfer media or ribbon has an
asterisk (*) in one of the digits. On thermal transfer media, the rating contains
the first and second digits, with an asterisk in place of the third digit because
this digit is reserved for ribbon. The rating on the ribbon has numbers in either
the first and third digits, with an asterisk in place of the second digit because
this digit is reserved for media.
For example, you may see 56* on the media and 5*3 on the ribbon. In this case,
fine-tuning of the printhead requires that you set the sensitivity rating to 563.
Set media sensitivity with the configuration command <SI>g. For example,
enter the following command to set the sensitivity number 563:
<SI>g1, 563
Where:
<SI>g1
sets the printer to thermal transfer media.
,563
sets the sensitivity number to 563.
See Chapters 6, “Designing Labels and Using Commands,” and Chapter 7,
“Printer Commands,” for more information on how to use this command.
To set the sensitivity rating for direct thermal media, use the three digit
sensitivity rating located on the roll of media or listed in the following table.
