The message will be printed using a 7 Quality message type and an Ultima
62 µm printhead. From Figure A-9 on page 165, the raster rate is 1.74 kHz.
This is slightly higher than the quoted maximum line speed for the
message type, achieved at the expense of a small gap between the printed
drops.
The encoder/gearing chosen has an encoder pitch of 0.040 mm (Step 2),
and a specified frequency of 80 kHz.
This will not limit the expected printable maximum line speed.
NOTE: The Limiting Signal Frequency for Linx standard encoders is
80 kHz.
Maximum Line Speed (m/s) = 0.36 mm x 6.15 kHz
= 2.214 m/s
Maximum Encoder Speed (m/s) = 0.040 mm x 80 kHz
= 3.2 m/s
