PRINTER CONTROL
Unidirectional
The Unidirectional feature affects both print quality and printing speed.
By setting this feature, you can configure the printer to print in both
directions of the shuttle sweep (bidirectional), or to print in one direction
only (unidirectional).
• Disable. The printer will print all data in both directions of the
shuttle sweep (bidirectional printing). This choice produces higher
printing speed.
• Enable. The printer will print all data in only one direction of the
shuttle sweep (unidirectional printing). Although enabling this
feature reduces print speed, it enhances the vertical alignment of
dots and produces cleaner, sharper bar codes and text.
PMD (Paper Motion Detection) Fault
• Enable. In the event of a paper jam, an audible alarm beeps,
“CLEAR PAPER JAM” appears on the message display, and the
printer stops printing.
• Disable. You should disable PMD only if special paper requires it.
CAUTION
Once PMD is disabled, paper motion is not monitored. If a paper
jam occurs, the printer ignores the condition and continues to
print, possibly causing damage to the printer.
