Alarm On Fault
The Alarm On Fault parameter determines whether or not the audible alarm
sounds on a printer fault, such as an out-of-paper condition. If Alarm On
Fault is enabled, the alarm sounds when a printer fault occurs. You can
enable or disable this parameter.
Shuttle Timeout
The shuttle timeout parameter determines the amount of time the shuttle will
continue running after printing stops. This allows the shuttle to continue
moving during the time between print jobs when the print jobs arrive at
frequent intervals (less than five minutes apart). Time is saved if the shuttle
is still moving when a print job arrives at the printer, since the printer does
not have to wait for the shuttle to reach its operating speed.
Unidirectional
The Unidirectional feature affects both print quality and printing speed. By
setting this feature, you can configure the printer to print in both directions of
the shuttle sweep (bidirectional), or to print in one direction only
(unidirectional). You might want to enable this feature when printing bar
codes or high quality text. Although enabling this feature reduces print
speed, it enhances the vertical alignment of dots and produces cleaner,
sharper bar codes and text.
•
Disable: The printer will print all data in both directions of the shuttle
sweep (bidirectional printing). This choice produces higher printing
speed.
•
P-Series Plot: The printer will print all P-Series plot dots in only one
direction of the shuttle sweep. All other data are printed bidirectionally.
•
Enable: The printer will print all data in only one direction of the shuttle
sweep (unidirectional printing). This choice produces higher print
quality.
