Contrast
Use the contrast parameter to make minor adjustments of the
blackness of the printout, for example to adapt the printer to
variations in quality between different batches of the same media.
The options are values between -10% to 10% in steps of 2.
Default value is 0%. The contrast is reset to the default value
whenever a new paper type is specified, regardless which method
has been used.
Testfeed
The Testfeed is a read-only parameter that indicates internal
parameters for the Label Stop Sensor. These are automatically set
when running a Testfeed (by pressing Print button more than
one second.) It is very important to run a testfeed when switching
from one media type to another.
Testfeed Mode
In certain unusual cases, a Testfeed may have been unable to
succesfully identify gaps or marks in the media. It is thus possible
to set the Testfeed Mode to Slow to allow the Label Stop Sensor
to more easily identify media gaps/marks. The options are Slow
and Fast (default).
LEN (Slow Mode)
When the Testfeed Mode is set to slow, the printer will sample
the media length plus 10mm. You can change the sample length
by specifying the number of dots in LEN(Slow Mode), the
minimum being the number of dots corresponding to 10mm.
The default (media length plus 10mm) is specified by the value 0.
Print Definitions
Print Speed
The Print Speed is specified in mm/second. Allowed values are
50-150 mm/s (2-6 ips) for the 203dpi printhead and 50-100
mm/s (2-4 ips) for the 300 dpi printhead. Default is 100 mm/s
(4 ips) and 75 mm/s (3 ips) for 203 and 300 dpi printheads
respectively.
