Basic Settings
Select the [Basic Settings] tab.
 Resolution: Sets the resolution.
When printing with TextEdit, a reduced printing option setting is recommended because the left margin is fixed
to 1 inch in TextEdit and the printable area width is not wide enough in the TM-m30.
 Print Speed: Sets the print speed.
If the print speed is too fast when printing a large bitmap with a thermal printer, the
data may not be received in time and the printer may pause paper feeding. In this
case, print irregularities may occur in the bitmap.

Color irregularities can be reduced by changing the print speed from 1st (fast) to
2nd (slightly slower) or 3rd (slower) so that printing takes place smoothly without
stopping.
