Speed and Darkness Settings

Speed and Darkness settings in Cab Label Software

Select the print option of the label template.

Highlight the CAB MACH1/300 printer and double click the small icon on the far right-hand side, ‘Configure the currently selected device’. Alternatively, highlight the CAB MACH1/300 printer and right click it, then select ‘Configure the currently selected device’.

Here, the CAB MACH1 properties box will appear—select the ‘Options’ tab where the Speed and Darkness settings can be found.

If your printout is too faint, you will want to decrease the speed (the lowest setting is 50.8 mm/s) and increase the darkness (the highest setting is 19).
