摘要 |
The invention relates to a method for managing the printing of data by a thermal printer (4) which includes a thermal printing head (44), said thermal head (44) including a plurality of points, each point having an effective resistance r d , said thermal printer (4) being powered by a power source. According to the invention, such a method includes the following steps: measuring (31) a voltage U supplied by said power source of said thermal printer; measuring (32) an internal resistance r u of said power source; and calculating (33) a time t for heating a number n of points in accordance with said voltage U of said power source, with said internal resistance r u of the power source, with at least one effective resistance r d of at least one point to be printed in order to print said data, and with at least one parasitic resistance value r p of at least one element of said thermal printer. |
