3-35 ● Printing Characters
● Specify the print start delay (printing start position) as suggested below.
(i) Measure the length of the print start delay.
(ii) Measure the inter-character distance (C).
(iii) Divide the value obtained in (i) by the value obtained in (ii). Enter
the resulting value.

: Setting value
● When product speed matching function is not provided, if the ink drop use
percentage, character width, character size or number of lines is changed,
the set value of the print start delay can be adjusted so that the time until
printing starts will not change.
● When product speed matching function is provided, if the pulse rate
division factor is changed, the set value of the print start delay can be
adjusted so that the time until printing starts will not change.
● The print start delay “Scan is dependent on the maximum character size
whethet that maximum character size item is all blank.
Make sure to select character size at all blank items as same as other valid
items.

Target sensor timer
time setup
Target sensor timer
● You can specify the time for displaying a fault message when the sensor
light is continuously blocked.
● When the time of shielding the sensor from light exceeds a set value, the
message "Target Sensor Fault" is displayed.
● If the "Target sensor timer" feature is not needed, select a setting of 0.
● The selectable setting is from 0.0 to 99.9 seconds.
Target sensor filter
● Perform this setup when you intend to maintain operation normality even in
the event of chattering.
● In the case that a sensor signal chatters when a printed matter shields the
sensor from light, the time to ignore the chattering is set.
● When a fault occurs due to chattering, the message "Print Overlap Fault" is
displayed.
● If the target sensor filter feature is not needed, select a setting of 0.
● The selectable setting ranges from 0 to 9999 milliseconds.
● This allows not only "time setup" but "until end of print." as well.
● "Until end of print" can not be used in case of continuaus printing.
Ink drop use percentage
● A setting between 1/1 and 1/16 can be selected.
