Plain English

Manually sets the printhead resistance value. Normally auto-detected, but can be overridden if the auto-detection is wrong (rare — usually after a head replacement).

When to use

After replacing a printhead where auto-detection isn't working correctly. Incorrect resistance = incorrect darkness.
