Page 27: Section 7: Printer Configuration
Therefore, this section completely handles the hardware operation. From the Home screen of the Sellenis Printer Control software, click the icon to access the Printer Configuration section. The Printer Configuration section is displayed as follows:...
Page 28 Group Combinations The Sellenis S-Jet 600 series printer operates on various combinations of printheads. One printhead (one group) of four pens are stitched together to provide a maximum print height of 50.8 mm. You can pre-set the number of groups, edit the grouping options, toggle orientation, and toggle the direction of production line/conveyor belt from this section.
Page 29 Note: The grouping options are enabled only if the number of printheads selected is more than the number of groups created. Registered Office: 29 High Street, Harston, Cambridge, England, CB22 7PX, Page 29 Copyright © Sellenis Ltd 2020...
Page 30 Example: If you have selected four printheads and three groups, the Grouping Options available are as follows: Figure 12-5, Option 1: Figure 12-6, Option 2: Figure 12-7, Option 3: Registered Office: 29 High Street, Harston, Cambridge, England, CB22 7PX, Page 30 Copyright © Sellenis Ltd 2020...
Page 31 The direction selection is available for each group you have created. Firing Voltage The firing voltage is set automatically by the Sellenis software every time it reads a cartridge. The user can then change the firing voltage by +/- 1 volt. The user can do this from the Print Configuration section.
Page 32 300 dpi or less To know more about the alphanumeric keypad and the numeric keypad, refer to Onscreen Keypads section in Appendix 7. Registered Office: 29 High Street, Harston, Cambridge, England, CB22 7PX, Page 32 Copyright © Sellenis Ltd 2020...
Page 33 The Group Print Offsets section enables you to align the print from the cartridges or pens in a group. The S-Jet 600 series printers support horizontal and vertical alignment. You can access the Group Print Offsets section of the Sellenis Printer Control software by clicking the icon from the Print Configuration header bar.
Page 34 Perform this procedure for all the Groups that you have created. To know more about the alphanumeric keypad and the numeric keypad, refer to the Onscreen Keypads in Appendix 7 Registered Office: 29 High Street, Harston, Cambridge, England, CB22 7PX, Page 34 Copyright © Sellenis Ltd 2020...
Page 35 This ensures that there are no dark or white lines printed in the output. Note: The vertical alignment is applicable only if you have multiple cartridges present in a group. Registered Office: 29 High Street, Harston, Cambridge, England, CB22 7PX, Page 35 Copyright © Sellenis Ltd 2020...
Page 36 Enter the required Photocell Mask value in millimeters (mm).

Page 37 Use of Various Shaft Encoders & Friction Wheels The Sellenis printer provides an input/connection for an incremental quadrature shaft encoder. The standard recommended shaft encoder and associated friction wheel are 5000 pulses per revolution (PPR) and 200 mm circumference, respectively. This combination of standard shaft encoder and friction wheel gives a 25 pulses per mm PPM) (which is 5000 pulses/200 mm=25 ppm).
Page 38 PPM is not known and therefore needs to be calculated automatically by the software given the shaft encoder and wheel specifications (Please see Appendix 12: Shaft Encoder and Friction Wheel Installation) Registered Office: 29 High Street, Harston, Cambridge, England, CB22 7PX, Page 38 Copyright © Sellenis Ltd 2020...
Page 39 Protocol Mode (printing from client offline pc or other production IT such as ERP) • Sellenis Windows Driver Mode (for use with Windows apps, such as Nicelabel, Bartender, Flexmail) Select the check box adjacent to the Internal Shaft Encoder field to select the internal shaft encoder.
Page 40 Note: This option is enabled, only if you have selected Repeated Printing as the printing mode.

Registered Office: 29 High Street, Harston, Cambridge, England, CB22 7PX, Page 40 Copyright © Sellenis Ltd 2020...
Page 41 Simulated Printing Settings The Simulator associated with the Sellenis Printer Control software enables you to set the print without the aid of a physical shaft encoder or photocell. By setting the Simulator, the printer uses its own electronically generated inputs to provide continuous and constant speed printing.
Page 42 Select this mode of printing only if the production line (conveyor belt) speed is constant. In this case, the print speed of the conveyor needs to be measured and set manually on the configuration screen.
