25 EVOLUTION 1 SYSTEM MANUAL Issue 1.1 20 Dec 2006
SETTING PRINT DELAY
Print delay is used to position a message on the
product at a location other than at the leading edge.
Access this parameter by pressing on the
keypad.
NOTE: This parameter may be set when the unit is either in the PRINTING
or STOPPED mode
To change the value use either or . The
range of values for this parameter is 1 to 255. Each
increment represents 18 columns, approximately
.053” (1.35mm). Therefore, a delay of 255 would
approximate 13.46” (342mm). Once a number is
chosen, press to save the entry.
NOTE: THE DIMENSION INDICATED IS WHILE PRINTING A PERFECT
ASPECT RATIO CHARACTER. WHEN PRINTING A COMPRESSED OR
EXPANDED CHARACTER THE ACTUAL DIMENSIONAL NUMBER WILL BE
DIFFERENT BUT CAN BE ESTIMATED BASED ON THE 18 COLUMNS PER
COUNT.
NOTE: Setting the line speed first, then adjusting the print delay may prove
to be the best starting point
SETTING HEAD ALIGNMENT
Aligning the vertical print for messages in multiple
print heads is fine-tuned with an additional feature
found in either the PRINTING or STOPPED mode.
Pressing the letter O on the keyboard accesses
this feature.
A count of 0 disables this feature while using the
arrow keys allows the user to fine-tune the print
head alignment. Valid selections are from 0-16.
