Print Speed
Command Structure <ESC>CSa
a = 1 2 ips (50 mm/s)
= 2 3 ips (75 mm/s)
= 3 4 ips (100 mm/s)
= 5 5 ips (125 mm/s)
= 6 6 ips (150 mm/s)

Command Function To specify a unique print speed through software for a particular
label. This allows flexibility in finding the best performance and quality
for the particular label format, media, and ribbon. All subsequent
labels will print at this speed unless the speed is changed with this
command or through the Operator Panel.
Input to Printer
<ESC>A
<ESC>CS5
<ESC>Z
Printer Output There is no printer output for this command. It sets the print speed of
the printer.
Special Notes 1. This becomes the new setting in the printer configuration for all
subsequent print jobs, unless changed. The setting is stored in
non-volatile memory and is not affected by cycling the power.
2. Parameters of “5” and “6” are not valid for the CT410.
