Tear Bar Dist. (Distance)
Allows fine and course adjustment of the tear bar position. For a pedestal
model printer using the top paper exit, the default
(7.46 inches) is used. You can specify 4.5 to 10.5 inches in .01 inch
increments to accommodate variations in cover and form design.
View Function
• Disable . Disables the View Function which allows you to press the VIEW/
EJECT key to move the last data printed to the tractor area for viewing.
Default value for Hanzi Gb/Kanji/Hangul printer.
• Enable . Enables the View Function. Default value for Hanzi Big5 printer.
Unidirectional
The Unidirectional feature affects both print quality and printing speed. By
setting this feature, you can configure the printer to print in both directions of
the shuttle sweep (bidirectional), or to print in one direction only
(unidirectional).
• Disable (default). The printer will print all data in both directions of the
shuttle sweep (bidirectional printing). This choice produces higher printing
speed.
• Enable . The printer will print all data in only one direction of the shuttle
sweep (unidirectional printing). Although enabling this feature reduces
print speed, it enhances the vertical alignment of dots and produces
cleaner, sharper barcodes and text.
Display Language
This parameter chooses the language that will appear on the LCD: English.
Accented Char
Selects whether the accented characters are standard or tall. See Figure 23
for an example. Selecting tall will slow print speed and may cause the printer
to back up during printing.
