6.3 Printing area
In order to print ticket containing only one black mark and to not overlay printing to a black mark (that will make it useless
for the next alignment), it is important to well calibrate the length of the printing area of ticket according to the inter-black
mark distance.
The following igure shows an example of tickets with "Black Mark Distance" set to 0:
Cutting line
A
A
"Non-printable area" = "Distance between autocutter/printhead"
where:
"Distance between autocutter/printhead" =
H
Distance between the irst and the last print line, called "Height of the printing area".
L
Distance between an edge of the black mark and the next one, called "Inter-black mark distance".
D
Automatic feed for alignment at the next black mark.
To use all the black marks on paper, you must comply with the following equation:
H + A ≤ L
The height of the printing area (H) can be increased to make no progress on alignment (D) but no further.
