COLUMN EMULATION

Provides compatibility with legacy

 

 

 

 

Datamax products. The Prodigy Plus and

 

 

Allegro calculated column positions using

 

 

200 DPI math but had 203 DPI printheads.

 

 

Also, decreasing the DPI compensates for

 

 

different printer models column “1”

 

 

positions.

 

—203 DOTS (180-203)

Selects the desired DPI emulation.

 

 

 

 

 

SOP EMULATION

Enables the <STX>O and <STX>f print

 

 

positioning commands to allow backward

 

 

compatibility with label formats designed

 

 

for other printers. (When changing these

 

 

values, the printer will automatically feed

 

 

two labels to setup the new print position.)

 

110 (PRODPLUS)

Emulates the Prodigy Plus® printer.

 

 

 

 

220 (ALLEGRO)

Emulates the Allegro® printer.

 

 

 

 

250 (PRODIGY)

Emulates the Prodigyprinter.

 

 

 

 

—DISABLED

No emulation, natural start of print

 

 

position.

 

 

BACK AFTER PRINT

When the present distance is set with the

 

 

cutter, present sensor or GPIO option

 

 

enabled, this setting determines the timing

 

 

of the label back up.

 

ENABLED

Commands the printer to immediately back

 

 

up the label after the cut operation, the

 

 

GPIO start of print signal is received, or the

 

 

present sensor is clear. It provides the

 

 

advantage of faster throughput.

 

—DISABLED

The printer will not initiate repositioning

 

 

until the next label is ready to print. May

 

 

help prevent the curling of the label edge.
