Graphics Benchmarks
1–6
The T6090 printer supports Horizontal row plots (single and multiple row), Vertical column
plots, and specialized Graphic plots. Your printer supports the following horizontal DPI's: 40,
48, 50, 60, 72, 80, 90, 96, 100, 120, 144, 150, 160, 180, 200, and 240. Your printer supports
the following vertical DPI's: 48, 72, 96,144, and 288. All other selections are emulated
through the use of scaling techniques.
Table 1–3. Plot Data Output Speed
Two benchmark tests were used to rate graphics output on the T6090 printer. The first was an
AIAG label containing bar codes and block characters inside a box. The second was a
POSTNET label with one line of POSTNET bar code and four lines of text.
The AIAG test consisted of a series of labels printed two across repeated vertically with a 0.1"
vertical space. The test was performed in two variations: Normal AIAG printed with 60 DPI
bar codes and Dark AIAG printed with 120 DPI bar codes.
The POSTNET test consisted of rows of labels printed four across with one blank line between
each row. In addition, the POSTNET test was run with 4 variations: Draft and Data Process-
ing (DP) type styles for text/bar codes printed at 6 and 8 LPI.
Tests were timed, then results were converted into labels per hour.
