6-3. Print Density Adjustment Since the sensitivity of different types of heat-sensitive paper varies, you can adjust the print density by varying the current supplied to the thermal head. Variable resistor used to adjust the print density The print density can be adjusted using the variable resistor inside the hole beside the interface connector on the back of the printer. 1. To adjust the density turn the resistor roughly two times using a small cross- head screwdriver. 2. Turn the resistor to
