Defining The Energy Tag (Optional); Defining The Contrast Tag (Optional); Defining The Printspeed Tag (Optional) - Avery Dennison Pathfinder6057 Programmer's Manual

Example <LabelSize units="Inches" length="1.0" width="2.0" />
Defines the label size as 1.0 inch long by 2.0 inches wide.

Defining the Energy Tag (Optional)

The Energy tag defines the printhead energy level. You may need to adjust this value
depending on the type of supplies you are using. For example, synthetic supplies require the
High energy setting, but standard paper does not.
Valid values include: Normal (0) and High (1). The default is Normal.
Syntax
<Energy>value</Energy>
Example <Energy>High</Energy>
Sets the printhead energy to high for synthetic supplies.

Defining the Contrast Tag (Optional)

The Contrast tag defines the print contrast for the job. You may need to adjust this value
depending on the type of supplies you are using. For example, synthetic supplies require a
higher print contrast, but standard paper requires less contrast.
Note: Solid black print should not exceed 30% on a given square inch of the label, or the
printhead life may be decreased.
Valid values include: -100% (minimum contrast) to 100% (maximum contrast). The default
is 0 (no contrast adjustment).
Syntax
<Contrast>value</Contrast>
Example <Contrast>35</Contrast>
Sets the print contrast to 35% for this job.

Defining the PrintSpeed Tag (Optional)

The PrintSpeed tag defines the print speed in inches per second (ips) for the job.
Valid values include: a float in the range of 1.0 to 5.0.
It contains the following attribute: fixed.
Note: Serial bar codes, lines, and graphics print at 2.0 ips. Synthetic supplies and special
supplies print at 1.5 ips.
Syntax
<PrintSpeed fixed="value">value</PrintSpeed>
Fixed
Note:
Example <PrintSpeed fixed="1">5.0</PrintSpeed>
Sets the printer's speed to 5.0 ips, but allows the speed to vary from 5.0 ips for serial bar
codes, etc.
2-2 LNT Programmer's Manual
The printer prints at the specified setting until the battery drains. Options:
0 False (default)
1 True
Fixed can be enabled for speeds 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 ips. Fixed is only recommended for
text formats, where print speed is required over print quality.
