Several configuration settings are available to improve print quality and
performance. You can use the configuration settings to control parameters such
as print darkness and the media sensitivity number. Many of the configuration
settings customize the printer for self-strip applications and the type of media
you are using. Use PrintSet, your third-party software, or the Intermec Printer
Language (IPL) command set to customize the configuration settings. Refer to
the IPL Programming Reference Manual for more information on all of the
configuration settings.
