Printer Configuration
Print Contrast Print Contrast
0
Possible Values: -75 … 0* … +125 in increments of 5
The printer automatically adjusts the amount energy used in order to maintain constant print quality as the
battery discharges during use. The Print Contrast setting modifies the value that is determined to be needed by
the printer and may be used to obtain improved print quality on different qualities of thermal print media.
Note: By affecting the relative amount of battery energy that is used when printing, the Print Contrast
setting affects both print speed and battery life. Setting a lower value will result in faster printing
and will extend normal battery life. Setting a higher value may allow the use of poorer quality media
and will result in slower printing and a shorter battery life.
Maximum Paper Speed Max Paper Speed
3.30 ips
Possible Values: Roll Feed Models - 0.32 …3.30* ips
Cassette Feed Models – 0.32 …2.30* ips
This feature may be used to reduce the maximum paper speed if necessary to allow the printer to use heavier
papers, labels, narrow paper or labels, or some coated papers that have a more slippery finish.
Form Feed Distance FFeed Distance
1.2608
Possible Values: 1.0000 … 1.2608* … 2.5216 inches
This feature sets the distance that paper is to be moved whenever the user presses the Paper Feed Button or a
Form Feed character is received from a host system.
Note: This feature is available in printers with firmware revision 2.0 and higher.
Mark Sensing Mark Sensing
Front
Possible Values: Front*, Back, Gap
Mark Sensing is used to identify form or label position marking and must be set to match the media being used.
The use of Black Mark or Gap sensing is associated with the design of the application program that is
controlling the printer. For more information on Black Mark or Gap sensing, please refer to the MtP400 Series
Programmer’s Manual.
Note: This feature is only available in MtP400 LP models.
