MEDIA CONTROL Submenus

Print Intensity

This option specifies the level of thermal energy from the printhead to be used
for the type of media and ribbon installed.

Large numbers imply more heat (thermal energy) to be applied for each dot.
This has a significant effect on print quality. The print intensity and speed
must match the media and ribbon type to obtain the best possible print quality
and barcode grades.

The range is from -15 to +15.

The factory default is -3.
