Slew Speed
The speed at which the printer moves media without actually printing on it.
•
Automatic (the default). Always the same as the print speed (see "Print
Speed" on page 98).
•
Manual. Allows you to set the slew speed. The maximum speed depends
on your printer model. See "Printing" on page 246 for slew speed
specifications.
Print Direction
This option determines the basic print image orientation.
NOTE: Print Direction will not change the orientation of any print test patterns
Print Direction has two options:
•
Head First (the default)
•
Foot First
For example, with Portrait orientation, when you select Head First, the top-of-
form will come out of the printer first. Conversely, when you select Foot First,
the bottom-of-form will come out first.
