The Printer Control Menu allows you to choose the printer’s behavior. Options
on this menu, as shown below, are described in the following pages.
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).
You might want to enable this feature when printing bar codes, high quality
text and graphics, or other printing that requires precise vertical alignment.
Although enabling this feature reduces print speed, it enhances the vertical
alignment of dots and produces cleaner, sharper bar codes and text. Choices
include the following:
• Disable. The default. The printer will print all data in both directions of the
shuttle sweep (bidirectional printing). This choice produces higher printing
speed.
