5.4 Printhead Assembly Adjustments

Mechanical adjustments ensure consistent print quality across a wide range of media types

and sizes.

5.4.1 Leveling Cam Adjustment

Adjust the Leveling Cam for even pressure distribution when using less than full width
media [4 inches (102mm)]; in addition, perform the adjustment when changing to a

different width of media:


A. With media loaded, download a batch of labels (or use a test format) and begin printing.


B. While observing the printed labels, rotate the Leveling Cam counter-clockwise to an

over-adjusted position (see Example 1).


C. Rotate the Leveling Cam clockwise, one click at a time, until the printed labels contain a

complete, even image (see Example 2).




Example 1 –

Too much adjustment produces an image that fades across the

label.
