Remarks: 1. The above table shows programmable ranges on the software.
Since the pitch of the heating elements of the thermal head of the B-372/572 is 0.083
mm/dot (12.05 dots/mm), the actual max. effective print width is as follows:
B-372: 79.7 mm
The pitch of the heating element of the thermal head of the B-872/672 is 12.0 dots/mm,
the effective print width is as follows:
B-872: 213.3 mm
2. In cut issue mode, label length B should be as follows:
Label length B ≥ 35.0 mm -
Notes
(1)
Before changing the label size or type of sensor, the Label Size Set Command
must first be transmitted.
(2)
The Label Size Set Command is protected in memory (protected even if the power
is turned off).
(3)
After sending the Label Size Set Command, one sheet of paper must be fed by the
Feed Command ([ESC] T) and must be aligned with the first printing position prior
to printing.
(4)
The origin of drawing coordinates, print stop position (head position at stop), and
cut position are determined according to the parameters of the Label Size Set
Command as shown in the figure on the preceding page. For the print stop
position in strip issue mode, refer to the section of the Position Fine Adjust
Command. The effective print area is centered on the label/tag.
(5)
Printing cannot be performed in the slow up (1 mm) and slow down (1 mm) areas.
Consequently, [A : label/tag pitch] - [H: effective print length] ≥ 2 mm must be
assumed.
(6)
The origin of drawing coordinates, print stop position (head position at stop), and
cut position are adjustable by the fine adjust commands and according to the fine
adjustment settings in System mode.
(7)
The tag rotation designation of the Issue Command ([ESC] XS) causes the origin
of drawing coordinates to be origin
origin
(8)
The parameters must be as shown in the figure and table. Any value or paper
outside the range results in a failure of printing or an error.
(9)
Where an effective print length within "max. effective print length for on-the-fly" is
specified, labels even each with different data can be printed continuously without
stopping every label because printing and drawing of the next label are processed
at the same time. [On-the-fly issue]
However, printing may stop every label depending on the quantity of drawing data.
Also, if the ribbon save issue is used, the On-the-fly issue will not be performed
regardless of the data quantity.
(10) When the direct thermal paper having a gap between labels is used at 8"/sec. print
mode on the B-872/672, the print stop position should be located 1 mm or more
inside the label. Therefore, [A: label/tag pitch] - [H: effective print length] ≥ 4 mm
must be assumed.
B-572: 127.5 mm
B-672: 170.6 mm
