Print Control (continued)
Menu Item Details
PRESENT DISTANCE
Sets the label stop position, where:
0.00in (0 - 4.00) Is the label travel distance at output.
MOTOR THROTTLING
Controls the current to the stepper motor, where:
ENABLED
Counts labels versus time and, if needed, pauses
printing to maintain a cooler motor temperature.
DISABLED
Applies motor current normally.
TOF PRECEDENCE
Allows an override of label format data when the form
length is exceeded, where:
DISABLED
Prints labels formats without TOF truncating.
ENABLED
Ends the label at the next TOF, truncating any print
data that extends past this mark.
CUSTOM ADJUSTMENTS These selections independently change the listed
parameters, allowing slight mechanical compensations
sometimes evident when multiple printers share label
formats or for special printer-specific formatting
adjustments, where:
DARKNESS
32 (1 - 64) Controls the printhead strobe time (see HEAT, above) to
fine-tune the solid areas of the image.
CONTRAST
32 (1 – 64) Fine-tunes the gray areas of an image.
ROW ADJUST
000 DOTS (
– XXX  XXXX)
Shifts the vertical SOP position to fine-tune the ROW
OFFSET setting; see Appendix B for range and Section
7.1 for dot size.
 Note: If shifting negative, modify PRESENT ADJUST
(see below) by the same amount.
COLUMN ADJUST
000 DOTS (
– XXX  XXX)
Shifts both the horizontal SOP position and the LABEL
WIDTH termination point to the right to fine-tune the
COLUMN OFFSET setting; see Appendix B for range and
Section 7.1 for dot size.
PRESENT ADJUST
000 DOTS (
– XXX  XXX)
Adjusts the label stopping position to fine-tune the
PRESENT DISTANCE setting; see Appendix B for range
and Section 7.1 for dot size.
