Black Mark Size and Position

See also Page Setup on page 85.

Print side

Inner side (opposite to thermal coating side)

 

 

Sensor position

25 mm before cutter, and 9.1 mm from left edge of ticket

 

entry when seen from the front of the printer (on the side of

 

the blue release arm).

 

 

Mark length range

3 to 18 mm, default 5 mm

 

 

Mark width

Minimum 5 mm centered on the sensor position,

 

recommended width is 9 mm

 

 

Print density

Standard wet offset mode is recommended for printing of the

 

black-marks. The full mark area must be printed. Screen-

 

printing is not allowed. Measurement of print density must be

 

performed relative to the white paper background.

 

 

 

Using a MacBeth densitometer, the print density must be

 

greater than 1.3. Anti-gloss filter is not allowed. Using a

 

Gretag densitometer, the print density must be greater than

 

1.5. The reflection from the black-mark must be less than

 

10%. The reflection from the paper must exceed 80%.

 

 

Preprinting

Preprinting in the zone passing over the black-mark sensor is

 

not recommended. If required, OCR blind type of ink must be

 

used, (outside the 700-1100 nm range).

 

 

Punched holes

Punching must be done from the thermally coated side. Distorted

 

print can be expected within a zone of approximately 2-mm

 

around the edges of the hole. The function must be tested.
