• Inches: -32 – (Distance x 300)
• Millimeters: -32 – (Distance x 11.8)
Example: Inches: -32 – (.020 x 300) = 34:
Note: The result of this equation may be a negative value.
7 Adjust the Print Offset value.
8 Press SELECT to save the value.

10 Repeat Steps 1 to 9 until the test image is correctly positioned, as shown below
in the display.
11 Follow these procedures for further adjustments:
a. Decrease the Print Offset value to move the printed image toward the
leading edge of the card.
b. Increase the Print Offset value to move the printed image toward the trailing
edge of the card.
c. Remember that ±30 Pixels will move the image 0.100 in. or 3.84mm.
