Heat level
The "Heat level" parameter enables the printer to adapt to possible differences
in the thermal properties of the thermal printheads.
An adjustment has already been made in the factory. If the printhead must be
replaced, it is very likely the "Heat level" parameter will have to be adjusted.
To adjust the print for different print jobs, it is recommended that you make the
heat level adjustment with software. (e.g. for different materials and speed)
The Printer Configuration value and software command value will be totaled
together when printing.
The setting of the "Heat level" parameter also affects the printer test prints (see
Test functions section).
Print speed
This parameter allows the adjustment of the print speed. This adjustment also
affects the printer test prints (see Test functions section).
The print speed can be set for each print job separately with software.
Changing the print speed with software does not change the basic adjustment.
Transfer print
This parameter is used to set the printer's method of printing to thermal transfer
printing or direct thermal printing. The setting affects two factors directly
related to thermal transfer mode. First, for thermal transfer mode, the
printhead requires a lower temperature than when in direct thermal printing
mode. Second, the ribbon sensor is active. The setting for transfer print for a
single print job can be overwritten with software.
