Independent forms thickness and forms
loading settings
• Correct platen position is remembered when
loading new box of forms
Constant platen gap location
• Reduces possibility of smudging
Infinitely variable forms thickness adjustment
• Permits optimum forms thickness setting
Smart Ribbon System Benefits
Provides a constant supply of ink to the print
mechanism
• Exhibits a uniformly high contrast over the
ribbon’s life. Other ribbons fade rapidly and in
proportion to use
Intelligent Ribbon Software (IRS) examines data
stream en route to the print mechanism
• Permits real-time control of ribbon to precisely match
ink supply to ink demand
Ribbon fault detection
• Ensures that ribbon is correctly installed and
free of jams
Weld detection for reinking ribbons prevents
printing on ribbon weld
• Eliminates possibility of poor print quality as a result
of printing directly on the fabric weld
• Increases life of the ribbon
