Step Procedure
4 Control the amount of heat the Printer uses (a) when printing with the resin black
panel of a full-color Ribbon or (b) when printing with a resin-only Ribbon by
adjusting the Resin Heat slide. See the Printer Components: Print Ribbons
description in Section 1, page 44.

Move the slide to the left to cause less heat to be used in the printing process,
causing resin images to be lighter or less saturated.
OR

Move the slide to the right to cause more heat to be used, causing resin
images to be darker or more saturated.
(Note: This control can be helpful for fine-tuning the sharpness of resin text and
bar codes. See the Resolving the excessive Resin Printing problems procedure in
Section 2, page 124.)
