Chapter 6 Replacement of the TM-T88V Replacement of the TM-T88V The TM-T88VI is designed so that it can smoothly replace the TM-T88V. This chapter describes precautions for the replacement. Compatibility 6 As same with the TM-T88V, manual paper feed is not possible with the TM-T88VI. 109 Printing The printing and character specifications are the same as those of the TM-T88V. Without special configurations, the TM-T88VI prints the same results as the TM-T88V prints. Print Density The print density of the TM-T88VI can be set with DIP switches (2-3/2-4) as can the TM-T88V. Set the density the same as for the TM-T88V to print in the same print density.
Number of Head Energizing Parts For the TM-T88VI, the default setting of the number of head energizing parts is “One-part energizing.” It does not usually need to be changed. TM-T88VI TM-T88V • One-part energizing • One-part energizing Number of head energizing part • Two-part energizing • Two-part energizing • Four-part energizing • Four-part energizing Printable Area (for 80 mm Width Paper) The printable area (left/right margins, print start position from the autocutting position, print start position from the manual cutting position) of the TM-T88VI is the same as that of the TM-T88V.
Cutting Method The TM-T88VI uses the partial cutting method (cutting with one point in left edge left uncut) as does the TM- T88V.
