Chapter 4 — Configuring Print Engine and Media Settings
PA30 Print Engine User’s Manual 71
Width
Specifies the width of the print window (in number of dots) from
the origin. Thus, the sum of the X-start and width values gives
the outer margin of the print window. The width should be set to
prevent printing outside the media, which may harm the
printhead.
Length
Specifies the length of the print window (in number of dots)
from the origin along the Y-coordinate and allocates memory
space for two identical image buffers in the printer’s temporary
memory.
The size of each buffer can be calculated using this formula:
Buffer size (bits) = [Print length in dots] x [Printhead width in
dots]
The length setting also decides the amount of media feed when
using “fix length strip.”
When the printer is set to use label or ticket stock, the length
setting creates an emergency stop if the label stop sensor has not
detected a gap or mark within 150% of the set length. Media feed
is automatically stopped to avoid feeding out a whole roll of
media because of a sensor malfunction.
Media Type Settings
These settings specify the type of media and related parameters.
Media Type
Specifies the media type being used, which also controls how the
label stop sensor (LSS) and the media feed work. There are five
media type options:
• Label (w gaps) is used for adhesive labels mounted on liner.
• Ticket (w mark) is used for labels or tickets with black marks
at the back.
• Ticket (w gaps) is used for tickets and tags with detection
slots.
Note: The temporary memory has other functions that also
require some memory space. To obtain a longer print area, you
can have more memory installed in the PA30. For more
information, contact your Intermec sales representative.
