CONTROL = HOST
(default)
The printer control mode tells you which parameters are going to be used.
If the printer is set on host, the parameters coming out of the the Wasatch
SoftRIP will be respected. If the local mode is selected, the setting informa-
tion coming out of the Wasatch SoftRIP will be overruled and will be re-
placed by the settings determined on the :Anapurna M4F itself.
DIRECTION = UNI / BI
In the bi-directional mode, the printer will be print in two directions: from
left to right and from right to left. In uni-directional mode, the shuttle will
return to home position without printing. The drops are only fired when the
shuttle moves from left to right.
PASS = Q4 / Q8
The number of passes is related to the quality mode. You can choose be-
tween two qualities, resolutions: 720 x 720dpi (Q4) or 1440 x 720dpi (Q8).
C-SPEED = 1 to 10
(default : 10)
The speed of the shuttle can be changed by a value between 1 (slow) and 10
(fast). The default setting (10) is the optimum speed. Decreasing the speed
will not provide better quality and will only limit your production capacity.
F-SPEED = 1 to 5
(default : 1)
The feed speed setting is the speed which the conveyor will move forward
between printing passes. This value can be changed between 1 (slow) and 5
(fast). If the shuttle starts to print the next pass when the conveyor belt is
still moving, you should increase the speed of the belt.
UNIT MM / INCH
You can choose between millimetres or inches and change the units of the
margins.
WEEP = OFF
/ ON
(default)
The automatic weeping function will make the print heads fire with a cer-
tain time gap when the carriage is at the home position. You can select an
interval between 0 and 99 seconds. This feature can be turned off because
the nozzles KM512MN print heads will not be blocked during stand still. This
feature is especially developped for the use of solvent inks and has to pre-
vent the curing of ink inside the print nozzles.
MARGIN: L = 150
You can enter a left margin, a starting point where the shuttle starts printing.
If the margin is set to 0, the :Anapurna M4F will start printing on the right
side of the vacuum table.
This is also important when you want to perform a prime test. Insert the dis-
tance on the table where you want ot perform the test print.
