Ribbon saving (ribbon autoeconomisation)
Ribbon saving can be used to interrupt ribbon feed through areas of the label that are not printed.
This saves ribbon, especially for long labels with very little printed surface.
Compared to the „normal" ribbon saving function can the label throuput be considerably increased
by setting the „turbo" ribbonsaving mode (On Turbo). This mode allows setting the feed speed in
print free areas independent from the print speed via
Settings: ["Thermal/headlift" "Thermal printing", "On", "Off", „On Turbo"]
• "Thermal/headlift": Thermal direct printing with automatic head lifting over unprinted areas (pro-
tects the printhead)
• "Thermal printing". Thermal direct printing (ribbon end sensor shut off)
• "On": Thermal transfer printing with ribbon saving
• "Off": Thermal transfer printing without ribbon saving
• „On Turbo": Thermal transfer printing with „turbo" ribbon saving
Ribb. eco. limit
The ribbon economisation limit corresponds to the length of the no-print zone on the label at the
point where ribbon autoeconomisation will be activated.
