PRINTER CONTROL
Ribbon End Point
This parameter adjusts the point at which the system will declare the ribbon
as being expended. The life count will always be from 100% to 0%, but if a
darker setting is selected 0% will be reached more quickly. If a lighter setting
is selected, the system will extend the time it takes to reach 0%. The range of
values are as follows:
• Normal
• Darker +1 through Darker +6
• Lighter -1 through Lighter -10
(Lighter -7 is the default)
NOTE: This value can be adjusted at any time and the display will
automatically adjust to show the correct percentage relative to the
new end point.
Open Platen @ BOF (Bottom of Form)
Some special forms have perforation areas that are too thick to pass through
the print station. This parameter, when enabled, opens and closes the platen
when the perforations move across the platen. When enabling this parameter,
you must set the forms length to match the physical distance between
perforations.
