Compatibility

This parameter allows you to make the T4204 thermal printer compatible with other printers.

When trying to preserve compatibility with respect to barcodes, you may not always be able to make them equal in size. This is due to the various Dot-Per- Inch differences between printer types. In the case where an exact match cannot be made, the barcode is reduced in size so that the form bounds will not be compromised and the barcode will be readable.

Default. The default. Use for optimum performance.

Laser. Forces the output to correspond with the laser line of printers.

P5000. Forces the output to correspond with the P5000 line of line matrix printers.

T3000. Forces the output to correspond with the T3000 line of thermal printers.

T1006. Forces the output to correspond with the T1006 line of thermal printers.

Power Saver Time

The time interval you specify for this parameter sets the amount of idle time before the printer goes into Power Saver mode.

Idle time begins counting down once media motion ends.

Disable. When Disable is chosen, the printer will not enter the Power Saver mode.

1 - 45 minutes. You may set the Power Saver Time from as little as 1 minute to as long as 45 minutes.
