Adjust the Print Darkness

Set the darkness to the lowest setting that provides good print quality. If you set the darkness too high, the label image may print unclearly, bar codes may not scan correctly, the ribbon may burn through, or the printhead may wear prematurely.

See Print Darkness on page 67 for more information.

Select the Print Speed

Select the speed for printing a label (given in inches per second). Slower print speeds typically yield better print quality.

See Print Speed on page 67 for more information.
