NOTE:
If the conveyor travel speed is constant
, the Speed print parameter is set and the
Cnv spd m/min print parameter is adjusted to the conveyor travel speed, bear in mind the
following hints:
• In order to get proportional
characters (i.e. of the same amounts of dots in the vertical
and horizontal directions), you can use only two parameters: the print height (number of
units of length, e.g. millimetres) and the horizontal resolution (the Resol. dot/cm print
parameter).
• The print height can be changed by changing the distance between the product to be
labelled and the head and/or the setting of the Height print parameter and/or
(exceptionally) high voltage.
• Please note that there is a difference between the print height measured in units of length
(e.g. mm) and the print height given as a number of dots. If the print height is defined by
a number of dots, we take into consideration character matrices, a layout of subtexts
within the print, dot-route corrections and the related constrains. If the print height is
given in length units, we mainly think of the appearance of an overprint.
• If the print height changes, the vertical resolution changes and in order to get proportional
characters, you need to modify the Resol. dot/cm or Cnv spd m/min print parameter.
4.7. Synchronizing Print Heads
The EBS-6100 printer has only one head, so no synchronisation is required.
