Menu Item Details
HEAT
Controls the burn-time of the printhead (selectable as
“Heat” in most labeling programs), where:
(0 – 30)
10 Is the number based on duration, corresponding to
print darkness.
PRINT SPEED Controls the rate of label movement during printing,
where:
XX.X in/sec Is the speed; see Appendix B for the model dependant
default and range.
 Slower rates may be needed for detailed images,
while faster rates may require an increased HEAT
setting for sufficient energy transfer.
FEED SPEED Controls the rate of label movement between printing
areas, where:
XX.X in/sec
Is the speed; see Appendix B for the model dependant
default and range.
REVERSE SPEED
Controls the rate of label movement during backup
positioning, where:
X.X in/sec
Is the speed; see Appendix B for the default and
range.
SLEW SPEED Controls the rate of label movement between printing
areas when using the optional Applicator Interface
Card’s GPIO function, where:
XX.X in/sec
Is the speed; see Appendix B for the default and
range.
ROW OFFSET Shifts the vertical SOP position on the label, where:
(0 – 99.99 in.)
00.00 Is the offset distance; see Section 7 for label details.
COLUMN OFFSET Shifts the horizontal, left-justified SOP position to the
right without shifting the Label Width termination point
to the right, where:
(0 – 99.99 in.)
00.00 Is the offset distance; see Section 7 for label details.
