Print Energy
If the printing is spotty, try increasing the print energy to transfer more of the ribbon ink to the
label. However, if the ribbon sticks or tears during printing, the heat energy may be too high
and should be reduced.
Constantly printing at high energy levels may cause printer jams or other
printing errors and may reduce the overall life of your printhead.
To adjust the print energy:
1. With a label in the Editor, touch Print .
2. In the Print dialog box, touch Advanced Settings .
3. In the Print Energy area, touch the appropriate box to increase or decrease the print energy
level.
Note: By default, the print energy is at the nominal setting for the best overall
performance. Because the nominal setting is programmed into the touch cell, the
selected print energy setting stays in effect for all subsequent print jobs with the
currently installed media. When new media is installed, the print energy level is
reset to the default setting. The print energy level is also reset by rebooting the
system.
4. If no further adjustments need to be made, proceed to Step 6.
