Colors that can be used as dropout colors differ depending on the model,
but with some models, even regular ballpoint pen ink drops out and
cannot be used. In such cases, you need special OCR ballpoint pens
that are rarely available today. See table below for relationships between
wavelengths and colors.
a) It is important to control the PCS value to print dropout colors. (You
need to choose a printer equipped with devices that can measure PCS
values.)
b) If you want to use an abundance of colors, we recommend printing in
ink other than dropout colors as a “black frame sheet.”
No feed
Refers to paper doesn’t get fed during paper feeding operations.
If such an error occurs, the device assesses it as a paper feeding error, and
noti
fi
es user of the error.
PCS (printed contrast signal)
Refers to the re
fl
ectance ratio (contrast) of printed marks, symbols, and letters as
opposed to re
fl
ectance of non-printed areas. The calculation formula is as follows.
PCS =
White re
fl
ectance - black re
fl
ectance
White re
fl
ectance
When reflectance of areas with no printing is 70%, and reflectance of printed
marks, symbols, and letters is 10%, the PCS will be 0.857.
