Printer Configuration
Print Contrast
Possible Values: -75 ... 0* ... +125 in increments of 5 (+35* for LP Models)
The printer automatically adjusts the amount energy used in order to maintain constant print quality as the
battery discharges during use. The Print Contrast setting modifies the value that is determined to be needed by
the printer and may be used to obtain improved print quality on different qualities of thermal print media.
Note: By affecting the relative amount of battery energy that is used when printing, the Print Contrast
setting affects both print speed and battery life. Setting a lower value will result in faster printing
and will extend normal battery life. Setting a higher value may allow the use of poorer quality media
and will result in slower printing and a shorter battery life.
Maximum Paper Speed
Possible Values: 0.32 ...3.30* ips (2.30* for LP Models)
This feature may be used to reduce the maximum paper speed if necessary to allow the printer to use heavier
papers, labels, narrow paper or labels, or some coated papers that have a more slippery finish.
Form Feed Distance
Possible Values: 1.0000" ... 1.2608"* ... 2.5216"
This feature sets the distance that paper is to be moved whenever the user presses the Paper Feed Button or a
Form Feed character is received from a host system.
Mark Sensing
Possible Values: Front*, Back, Gap (Back* for LP Models)
Mark Sensing is used to identify form or label position marking and must be set to match the media being used.
The use of Black Mark or Gap sensing is associated with the design of the application program that is
controlling the printer. For more information on Black Mark or Gap sensing, please refer to the MtP Series &
FieldPro Programmer's Manual.
Note: This feature is only available in MtP300 LP models.
