3.1.8.7 Setting printer speed

^PRs,f (Print Rate)

This command is used to set the print and/or feed rate of the printer independently of the rate set in
configuration.
s is a number or letter according to the following scheme:

2 (or A

184

) for a speed of 2 inches a second;

3 (or B) for a speed of 3 inches a second;
4
(or C) for a speed of 4 inches a second;
5
for a speed of 5 inches a second;
6
(or D) for a speed of 6 inches a second;
8
(or E) for a speed of 8 inches a second;

f is a number or letter according to the following scheme:

2 (or A) for a speed of 2 inches a second;
3 (or B) for a speed of 3 inches a second;
4
(or C) for a speed of 4 inches a second;
5
for a speed of 5 inches a second;
6
(or D

185

) for a speed of 6 inches a second;

8 (or E) for a speed of 8 inches a second.

The printer operates at the selected speed until it is turned off and/or it receives a new ^PR
command.
Since the speed and temperature corresponding to the type of ribbon and support used affect
printing quality, it is advisable to perform a printing test to determine the proper speed.

3.1.8.8 Backfeed

When the peel-off system or cutter is used (see the User Manual for the machine in question), upon
completion of printing operations, the paper must stick out far enough for proper alignment of the
cutting blade or peel-off system. Before resuming printing of the next label, the paper must then
return to position in alignment with the head. This is the backfeed movement. The extent of this
adjustment can be selected from the panel by means of a special parameter. Please refer to the User
Manual for instructions on how to use it.
When the present sensor is enabled (and thus the peel-off system or cutter are used), the backfeed is
automatically enabled (by the amount set with the parameter described above). However, to disable
it, the following command is used.

^XB (Suppress Backfeed)

This command force disables the backfeed at the end of label printing until the machine is turned
off.

184
