[Description]
1. The "ESC [F1]+[01]+[02]+[03]+[n]" command specifies the multi-strobe factor.
2. Multi-strobe burning is useful if the peak current in an application must be limited, E.G., in the
case of a power supply of restricted capacity. If the multi-strobe factor indicates double burn,
then only half the peak power is consumed by the print head.
3. If multi-strobe burning is enabled, then the dot line burning is divided into two sequential burn
cycles (i.e., burn the left side of the printhead first, then burn the right side; this is referred to as a
"double burn").
4. The multi-strobe factor is stored in flash memory, where its value can be 0 or 1. Multi-strobe
burning is enabled if the multi-strobe factor is equal to 1, and is disabled if the multi-strobe factor
equals 0.
5. [n] defines the multi-strobe factor in dot line burn cycles. The range of parameter [n] is
10 10
[0] ≤ [n] ≤ [1] , where
10
[0] disables multi-strobe burning
10
[1] sets the multi-strobe factor to double burn (2X)
6. The general information that is printed after paper insertion also contains information on the multi-
strobe factor under the "Settings" heading, provided that multi-strobe burning is enabled. If multi-
strobe burning is not enabled, it will not appear on this printout at all.
7. The print speed must be limited to a maximum of 130 mm/s if multi-strobe burning is enabled,
and limited to a maximum of 100 mm/s if dot history is also enabled. (Note that the eXtendo
automatically limits the print speed if this feature is enabled).
