Caution Differences Between Printing Modes The setting of this printer can be switched between the Standard mode and Fine mode for both YMC (color) printing and K Resin (text) printing by using the setting function in the status monitor (Printer setting tool). When carrying out double-sided printing on the card, the same mode setting will apply to both the front and rear faces. (Setting a separate mode for the front and back is not possible.) A longer printing time will be required when set to the Fine mode. The merits of using Fine mode printing and reference values on the printing time are shown below. 1) Upon removing a card during a card jam Example 2) Upon changing an ink ribbon when ink runs out 2. Additional Time when Set Merits of Using Fine Mode to Fine Mode YMC Approx. 5 sec / side Improvement in evenness, texture and sharper outline K Resin Approx. 2 sec / side Lesser broken and faded words Ink ribbon will be initialized when a different ribbon is used. However, ensure to initialize ink ribbon when initialization is activated using the RESET button. Test Printing Even when not connected to the host computer, test printing of built-in patterns can still be done in the Ready mode by pressing the RESET and CLEAN buttons simultaneously for more than 1 second (a "beep" sound will be heard from the buzzer) and releasing it. Refer to "Checking After Changing the Thermal Head" in the Startup Guide (P.34).
