Printing method
● Two printing methods are selectable: "single scan" and "interlaced"
● A printing method will be automatically selected in accordance with the
print format setup.
● When making interlaced prints, perform the following setup.
(i) Ensure that the same print format is employed for all items.
(ii) Ensure that the same line count setting is employed for all columns.
(iii) The ink drop use percentage is 1/1 to 1/4.
Perform overall column setup. The format for the first item is then
applied to all the other items so as to provide interlaced setup. When
making a 1-line print, the single scan predominates even if you
perform steps (i) through (iii) .

Print start delay
● The printing start position can be specified.
● The print start delay can be specified either on an individual character basis
or on an individual scan basis.
● You should set the print start delay on an individual character basis and then
make fine adjustments on an individual scan basis.
● The positional relationship between the sensor and nozzle is as indicated
below.
