7-2 Increasing Print Speed
B a t t e r y V o l t a g e
Battery Voltage is the level the battery is charged at. You can
check the voltage in the Diagnostics program.
Rule of Thumb
Switch to fully -charged batteries as often as possible. Print
speed decreases as the battery charge decreases.

Type of Printing refers to the contents of the label being printed:
serial or parallel bar codes, graphics, or text.
To change the type of printing, you would change the format’s
data stream. Then, you would change the application and re-
flash it into the printer.
Rule of Thumb
Using text and parallel bar codes increases print speed. The
printer’s speed for serial bar codes and graphics is a constant 2
IPS.
P r i n t C o n t r a s t
Print Contrast is a measure of how dark the printing is. You
adjust the contrast in the Diagnostics program.
Rule of Thumb
The darker the printing (higher contrast value), the slower the
print speed.
