Red/Black Print (Precautions for Use)
(1) Types of paper
The red and black two-color thermal paper changes its colors by controlling the energy applied to the
thermal head.
either of them to suit your application.
1. Red-based two-color thermal paper (PB670:
2. Black-based two-color thermal paper (735FA:
(2) High-energy printing rate
High-energy print (black print on red-based paper, or red print on black-based paper) required the
application of high energy to the thermal head. To protect the service life of the thermal head, use the
following printing rate as a guideline; use the fixed split (6-split) method.
1. Continuous print of high-energy print only
2. Mixed continuous print of low-energy and high-energy print
3. Printing rate per dot line
(3) Minimum dots for high-energy print
When high-energy print is used, the recommended minimum area is 3 dots (length) × 3 dots (width) or
more.
Depending on the set printing density, the paper used, or the printing characters, a sufficient
change of color tone may not be obtained even by high-energy print.
(Characters such as [, !, ', (, i, -, font B with small dot matrix)
It is recommended to use in such printing patterns as double-width characters, double-height characters,
double-width and -height characters.
CAUTIONS
1) If high-energy print is continuously carried out at a high operating ambient temperature, the thermal head
will become hot more quickly and the protective circuit will be activated, to stop printing more frequently.
Fully consider the working temperature and printing rate.
2) If a bar code is printed on the 2-color paper, both colors may appear in normal print and high-energy print,
or the bar code may not be correctly read by a bar code reader.
