Explanation
To feed media to the after heater after printing, choose Mode 1 or Mode 2;
otherwise, choose Off.
If Mode 1 is selected, the portion fed for drying will not be rewound before
the next job starts. Select this option if the media will be cut before the next
job starts.
If Mode 2 is selected, the portion fed for drying will be rewound before the
next job starts, eliminating unnecessary margin. Select this option if
multiple jobs will be printed consecutively.
Select On to enable, or Off to disable, the additional print drying system
(supplied with the SC-S50600 series; optional with other models). Note
that even when On is selected, the additional print drying system will turn
off with the heaters when the Heat Off Timer expires. The additional print
drying system will turn back on when the heaters resume operation. Heat

This item is displayed only when the additional print drying system
(supplied with the SC-S50600 series; optional with other models) is
installed.
Suction is required to maintain the correct distance between the media
and the print head; the amount needed varies with the type of media.
Excessive suction can increase the gap between the print head and thin or
flexible media, potentially reducing print quality or preventing the media
feeding normally. In such cases, you will need to lower media suction. The
suction power is weakened when the parameter is lowered.
Choose the range in which the print head moves during printing.
Data Width restricts print head movement to the printed area. Restricting
the extent of print head movement increases print speed.
If Printer Full Width is selected, the print head will move the full width of
the largest media supported by the printer. Select this option for more
even print results with less variation.
Choose the number of times each line is printed.
Choose Printable Side Out or Printable Side In according to how the
media is rolled.
Choose Periodically or Every Page to have the printer automatically
monitor and adjust media tension during printing for optimal results, Off
to disable automatic tension adjustment.
Periodically is recommended in most circumstances.
The printer may however be unable to adjust tension appropriately for
some media, resulting in excessive slack or other maladjustments that
cause printing problems, in which case you should select Off. Note,
however, that Off may result in unusually large margin between pages. In
addition, printing may not stop and the inside of the printer may become
stained. Observe the following precautions:
❏
Do not print at the end of a roll
❏
Do not select Off for Media End Check.
Select Every Page for more precise tensioning, but note that print times
will increase.
