This menu item is password protected. Enter and confirm password,
then the following parameters are indicated:
PhDownT = printhead down time in ms:
This is used from ribbon save algorithm for the calculation of start time
of printhead upwards movement.
REStartT = ribbon motor early start time in ms:
This value is added to the increase time of transfer ribbon movement.
Time indication for the time between 'motor reached material speed'
and 'printhead burns'.
If the same value is entered as for PhDownT, the printhead upwards
movement is not started before the transfer ribbon motor reached the
material speed.
MinSpeed = minimal print speed:
If the min. print speed is increased, the max. number of cycles is also
increased.
Calcoff = Turn On/Off print offset border calculation:
If this parameter is set to Off, then a smaller offset as the required
print offset can be entered.
PHupT = printhead up time in ms:
Is used from ribbon save algorithm to calculate if a field ribbon save
can be made or not.
PhVReactT = valve reaction time in ms:
It is calculated when the printhead upwards movement is started.
RibMotStpDlayT = ribbon motor stop delay time
Decelaration time in ms in which the transfer ribbon motor is still
moved with constant speed before stopping.
This can be used to correct black bars at the end of print or to provide
a longer cooling for the printhead.

FieldRS = field ribbon saving:
Off:
Field ribbon save mode Off.
PHOnly:
Only the printhead is moved. The transfer ribbon is not
stopped.
Normal:
Field ribbon save is executed only if the transfer ribbon motor
is completely stopped.
Strong:
Field ribbon save is executed, even if the transfer ribbon
motor is not stopped.
