8.2. Setting high-speed printing 
 
8.2.1. Overview 
 
● Six modes of HM, NM, QM, SM, D1 or D3 can be selected.   
By selecting the mode, high quality printing result can be ensured according to the line speed. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
● References for each nozzle diameter 
 
Refer to (8.2.2.) and (8.2.3.) below in this section. 
 
8.2.2. When performing high-speed printing by 1 to 3 lines. (Nozzle diameter : 65μm) 
 
①Necessary conditions to perform high-speed print 
● When all necessary conditions from Nos. 1 to 7 are satisfied, high-speed print HM, NM, QM, SM, D1 or 
D3 mode can be selected. 
 
Number of lines of all columns is the same.   
(Refer to Table in " Type of high-speed print and number of vertical dots 
used" for number of print lines available.) 
Character size of all print items is the same.   
(Refer to Table in " Type of high-speed print and number of vertical dots 
used" for character sizes available.) 
Line spacing of all columns is the same. However, if Line spacing is set to 3 
or more, High-speed printing is NOT available. 
Standard (Single scan or interlaced) 
 
* If high-speed print mode is “D1” or “D3”, it is better to select same Inter-character space setting for 
keeping better print quality. 
 
   
HM mode is equivalent to particle use 
percentage of 1/1.   
In the 2-line print setting, NM mode is 
equivalent to ink drop use percentage 
of 1/1.5.   
If the line speed remains the same, 
print width in the NM mode will widen 
by 1.5 times with respect to HM mode.
