ZTP SETTINGS
Refer to the ZTP SETTINGS Menu section in Appendix C, page 301. This menu only appears for Zero
Tear Pedestal printers.
Ribbon End Point
This parameter adjusts the point at which the system will declare the ribbon as being expended. The life
count will always be from 100% to 0%, but if a darker setting is selected 0% will be reached more quickly.
If a lighter setting is selected, the system will extend the time it takes to reach 0%. The range of values
are as follows:
•
Normal (factory default)
•
Darker +1 through Darker +6
•
Lighter -1 through Lighter -10
NOTE: This value can be adjusted at any time and the display will automatically adjust to show the
correct percentage relative to the new end point.
Open Platen @ BOF (Bottom of Form)
Some special forms have perforation areas that are too thick to pass through the print station. This
parameter, when enabled, opens and closes the platen when the perforations move across the platen.
When enabling this parameter, you must set the forms length to match the physical distance between
perforations.
Bar Code Quality
Determines the bar code resolution for all emulations, except IPDS. (See IPDS Emulation on page 165 to
set the bar code quality for IPDS.)
•
Dark (factory default). Bar code resolution is set at 120 x 72.
•
Draft. Bar code resolution is set at 60 x 72.
Tear Bar Dist. (Distance)
Allows fine and course adjustment of the tear bar position. For printers using the top paper exit, the
default (7.15 inches) is used. You can specify 4.5 to 15.5 inches in .01 inch increments to accommodate
variations in cover and form design.
View Function
•
Disable (factory default for pedestal printers). The View key functionality is Eject only. When the View
key is pressed the paper is ejected based on the value of the currently set Tear Bar Distance. When
the key is pressed again the top of the next available form moves to the print station. This movement
can be either forward or backward depending on the currently set form length.
•
Enable (factory default for cabinet printers). Enables the View Function in addition to the Eject. When
the key is pressed for a short period of time (less than 1/2 second) the functionality is View. The
paper moves from the print station to the tractor area for viewing. When the key is pressed again the
paper moves back to the print station. When the key is pressed for a longer period of time (more than
1/2 second) the functionality is Eject. When the View key is pressed the paper is ejected based on the
value of the currently set Tear Bar Distance. When the key is pressed again the top of the next
available form is moved to the print station. This movement can be either forward or backward
depending on the currently set form length.
NOTE: Default setting is Enable for Indian language printers.
