2.10.1 Minimum Distance between prints in DRS mode
When using DRS mode the percentage of ribbon saving will affect the distance
travelled.
Shuttle printer - DRS mode - 10.91 mm + Start border x max ribbon save ratio
The maximum ribbon save ratio will be the ratio the printer uses at 1800mm/s
If the DRS ratio is set at less than 56% the maximum ribbon save ratio will be
2.25:1
If the DRS setting is set above 56% the maximum ribbon save ratio will be derived
from the DRS setting.
Example:
With a DRS setting of 20% the distance from the Print Go signal to the start of
print will be (10.91 + start border) x 2.25) = 29mm
With a DRS setting above 56% the minimum distance between prints will be
larger.
