Adjust Print Darkness
Darkness (burn duration) settings depend on a variety of factors, including
ribbon type, media type, and the condition of the printhead. You may adjust
the darkness for consistent high-quality printing.

Important •

Set the darkness to the lowest setting that provides

good print quality. If the darkness is set too high, the ink may
smear, the ribbon may burn through, or the printhead may wear
prematurely.

If printing is too light or if there are voids in printed areas, increase the
darkness. If printing is too dark or if there is spreading or bleeding of
printed areas, decrease the darkness.

The

FEED Self Test on page 156

can be used to determine the best darkness

setting. You may want to adjust darkness while performing the

PAUSE Self

Test on page 155

. Because the darkness setting takes effect immediately,

you can see the results on labels that are currently printing. Darkness
settings also may be changed by the driver or software settings.
