The method is in favor of realizing the self-adaption of the thermal printer to the thermal paper so as to guarantee the thermal printer to print well effects by matching with all kinds of thermal paper without manual intervention.

Description

The control method of thermal printer self adaptation heat-sensitive paper
Technical field
The present invention relates to the thermal printing technique field, particularly a kind of control method of thermal printer self adaptation heat-sensitive paper.
Background technology
The printing depth of thermal printer is by printhead heat time heating time and the common decision of heat-sensitive paper characteristic.Because the heat-sensitive paper quality of using on the market at present is uneven; The thermo colour characteristic that use on the heat-sensitive paper surface also is not quite similar; Cause same thermal printer product when using the heat-sensitive paper consumptive material of different model, can not print identical effect; Need manual work to reset the thermal printing degree of depth, and constantly regulate and print the degree of depth, could realize printing effect preferably.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of control method of thermal printer self adaptation heat-sensitive paper; This method helps realizing the self adaptation of thermal printer to heat-sensitive paper, and then realizes that need not manual intervention can guarantee which kind of heat-sensitive paper no matter thermal printer cooperate to realize good printing effect.
For realizing above-mentioned purpose, technical scheme of the present invention is: a kind of control method of thermal printer self adaptation heat-sensitive paper: carry out as follows:
Step 1: the control thermal printer prints one section black patch on heat-sensitive paper;
Step 2: control said thermal printer execution and move back the paper operation, make the black patch that prints shelter from the reflection light barrier on the thermal printer;
Step 3: control said reflection light barrier to said black patch emission light, and confirm required thermal head heat time heating time according to the photoelectric current size that said reflection light barrier receives;
Step 4: set thermal head heat time heating time of said thermal printer heat time heating time according to required thermal head, self-adapting program is accomplished.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows through adjustment and control printhead heat time heating time of thermal printer; Realize the self adaptation of thermal printer to heat-sensitive paper; And then realize need not manual intervention and can guarantee that thermal printer can both realize good printing effect on different heat-sensitive papers, have very strong Practical significance and wide market application prospect.

The specific embodiment
The control method of thermal printer self adaptation heat-sensitive paper of the present invention, it realizes that principle is as shown in Figure 1, carries out as follows:
Step 1: the control thermal printer prints one section black patch on heat-sensitive paper;
Step 2: control said thermal printer execution and move back the paper operation, make the black patch that prints shelter from the reflection light barrier on the thermal printer;
Step 3: control said reflection light barrier to said black patch emission light, and confirm required thermal head heat time heating time according to the photoelectric current size that said reflection light barrier receives;
Step 4: set acquiescence heat time heating time of said thermal printer heat time heating time according to required thermal head, self-adapting program is accomplished.
Above-mentioned reflection light barrier can be that said thermal printer is used to realize lacking the photoelectric tube that paper detected or deceived the mark measuring ability, also can be the photoelectric tube that aims at the present invention's design.
Above-mentioned thermal head heat time heating time define multiple implementation.As shown in Figure 2; In the embodiment of the invention one; Definite method of above-mentioned thermal head heat time heating time is: count to detected different photoelectric current scopes through previous experiments; The thermal head heat time heating time that thermal printer need be adjusted to, make the corresponding relation tables of data of different photoelectric current scopes and required thermal head heat time heating time, and store in the printer in advance.As shown in Figure 3, said corresponding relation tables of data is a bivariate table, respectively the expression photoelectric current scope (m microampere ~ n microampere) of testing and in requisition for the heat time heating time (x millisecond) that is provided with.When each self-adapting program is carried out, from said corresponding relation tables of data, find residing photoelectric current scope and corresponding required thermal head heat time heating time, thereby confirm corresponding required thermal head heat time heating time according to the photoelectric current size that receives.
As shown in Figure 4, in the embodiment of the invention two, another of above-mentioned thermal head heat time heating time confirms that method is: in said thermal printer, preestablish a photoelectric current ideal value scope (m microampere ~ n microampere); When carrying out, self-adapting program judges whether the photoelectric current I that receives is between m microampere to the n microampere; If greater than the n microampere, then thermal head is increased t millisecond (t is a constant) heat time heating time, if less than the m microampere; Then will reduce t millisecond (t is a constant) heat time heating time; A thermal head of every change is just carried out a black patch printing and photoelectric current judgement heat time heating time, makes the photoelectric current that receives approach said photoelectric current ideal value scope one by one, in the time of in photoelectric current is in electric current ideal value scope; Current thermal head is set to give tacit consent to heat time heating time heat time heating time, prints best depth effect thereby reach.
As shown in Figure 5; In the embodiment of the invention three, definite method of above-mentioned thermal head heat time heating time is: in said thermal printer, preestablish a photoelectric current ideal value, when beginning to print black patch; Disposable printing heat time heating time is from minimum all black patches of the maximum degree of depth at different levels all; In moving back the paper process, said reflection light barrier detects the degree of depth of each black patch successively, and the photoelectric current size that each black patch is corresponding compares with said photoelectric current ideal value; Find the black patch of difference in setting range of photoelectric current size and said photoelectric current ideal value, be set to give tacit consent to heat time heating time heat time heating time that this black patch is corresponding.
More than be preferred embodiment of the present invention, all changes of doing according to technical scheme of the present invention when the function that is produced does not exceed the scope of technical scheme of the present invention, all belong to protection scope of the present invention.
