(IM) Internal Module – This command sets the number of 1K blocks (or 4K blocks for non-
display models, see the
(LA) Label Alignment – This command prevents labels with lengths that are less than the
distance between the print head and the Media Sensor from being wasted at power-up. See the
appropriate Operator’s Manual for specific information. Unless otherwise noted, the following
information pertains to all non-display models:
Value /
Mode
Media Type
Description / Operation
N =
Disabled
6.5-inch and greater (≥
16.51 cm) die-cut,
notched, reflective,
continuous, and multiple
form lengths.
When disabled, non-display printers begin printing at the
current location, unless equipped with RTC (Real Time
Clock); see note below.
The EX2 assumes the label position has not moved while
power was off and that no system changes have occurred.
A =
Auto
In auto mode, the printer will verify the label position
using the provided Alignment Length before printing the
first label after power-up.
Press and hold the FEED Key four seconds so the printer
will measure the length of the label.
The EX2 will only measure the label length when new
label stock is loaded.
Y =
Enabled
6.5-inch or less (≤16.51
cm) die-cut, notched, and
reflective.
When enabled, the printer will verify the label position
using the provided Alignment Length before printing the
first label after power-up.
Specify the Label Alignment Length using the
command, or the Setup Menu.
Table 5-3: Label Alignment Command
Note: The Real Time Clock (RTC) option allows the position-state of the label to be stored, thus
eliminating the need for an alignment prior to the printing of the first label (assuming the
label position has not moved while AC power was removed). If the label stock has been
changed then a Forced Alignment (press and hold the FEED Key 4 seconds) is
recommended.
