The ideal setting keeps imaging just ahead of printing. This ideal setting can be
found by the proper selection of image bands and print speed for the label
format being printed.
Image Band Example
The following example shows a format print using image bands. The label is 5
inches long and is divided into five image bands. The printer is configured for
three image bands, which means that three bands will be imaged before
printing begins.
The dashed lines represent the divisions between the five image bands and the
arrow (
↑
) represents the portion of the image band that is being printed at that
time.
The first diagram shows the first 1 inch of the label imaged into the first image
band. The other two image bands are still empty. Printing has not begun.
The second 1 inch of label is imaged into the second image band. Printing has
still not begun.
