ADVANCED MODE
MENU DESCRIPTION
DARKNESS RANGE Affects the print darkness via the heat range of the print head.
Option A has a higher heat range than option B. Option B is
preferable if the print job requires large print coverageon the
label to prevent excessive heat buildup and damage to the
head. This option works in conjunction with the print darkness
menu in the Normal Mode.
ZERO SLASH Determines if a zero will be printed with or without a slash.
When the YES option is chosen, all applicable fonts will be
affected. This setting may also be controlled via software
commands.
AUTO ONLINE Determines the mode in which the printer powers up. If the YES
option is selected, the printer will power up in the online mode
and ready to print. If the NO option is selected, the printer will
power up in the offline mode and will require to manually be
brought online.
PRINT OFFSET Allows the vertical and horizontal offset adjustment. This is
distance the print image is offset from the label’s edge. The
vertical offset moves the image forward or backward on the
label while the horizontal offset moves the image laterally.
SET CALENDAR Displays only if the option is installed. This feature permits the
printing of the date and time of print occurance onto the label. If
the YES option is selected, a secondary menu will display for
date and time entry.
IGNORE CR/LF The YES option sets the printer to delete all carriage return and
line feed commands in the data stream. The NO option the
default.
CHARACTER PITCH The PROP option allows proportional pitch and the FIXED
option is without. The FIXED option sets printing so that each
font occupies the same amunt of lateral space regardless of a
given character width. For example, the character “i” would
occupy the same space laterally as the character “s” even
though the “s” is obviously wider. Conversely, proportional
printing accomidates printing to the width of each printed
character.
