Speeding Up Output for Narrow Media

This shortens output time by reducing the width of head movement to the minimum necessary. This is effective when the width of the media or the output data is narrow.
Procedure
  1. Set up the media.
  2. Click AP-640_Panel_Icon_MENU.
  3. Click the List of Media Settings - Printing Movement Range pull-down menu.
    MediaWidthSetting
  4. Specify the range of print-head carriage movement during printing.
    Output Data Width Matches the range of print-head carriage movement to the output data. Movement is limited to the minimum amount necessary, and this can be expected to yield the fastest output. Note, however, that because the speed of media movement is no longer constant, colors may be uneven.
    Media Width "SHEET" matches the range of print-head carriage movement to the width of the media.
    Full Width The print-head carriage moves from one end of the machine to the other. Makes the speed of media movement constant at all times and produces the most stable printing result.
