Chapter 5 — Setting Up the Printer
EasyCoder PF4i User’s Guide (IPL Version) 57
Darkness
Use this parameter to make minor adjustments of the blackness
in the printout, for example to adapt the printer to variations in
quality between different batches of the same media. The value
can be set within the range -10% to +10% where -10 is the
lightest and 10 is the darkest. Default value is 0.
Label Rest Point
Specifies where labels stop for removal. Use this for peel-off (self-
strip) applications. The valid range is -30 (furthest back) to 30
(furthest forward). Default is 0. Also available as an IPL
command (<SI>fn).
Form Adj Dots X
Specifies where the X-position of the origin should be placed on
the label. The valid range is -30 (closest to the leading edge) to 30
(furthest from the leading edge). Default is 0.
Form Adj Dots Y
Specifies where the Y-position of the origin should be placed on
the label. The valid range is -30 (closest to the center section) to
30 (furthest from the center section). Default is 0.
Configuration
Emulation Mode
The emulation mode lets you print bar code labels that were
originally designed on an 86XX printer in multiples of 10 or 15
mil. When the printer is working in emulation mode, not all IPL
commands are supported. For a complete list of commands
available during emulation mode, see the latest version of the IPL
Programming Reference Manual (P/N 066396-xxx).
To exit emulation mode, select emulation “None”. This is the
default.
Print Speed
You can select the print speed from 4 in/sec (100 mm/sec) to 8in/
sec (200 mm/sec) with an interval of 1 in/sec. The higher the
print speed, the more wear on the printhead, so do not use a
higher print speed than necessary. Some direct thermal media or
ribbon/media combinations may not allow the highest
alternatives without the printout quality being adversely affected.
