necessary when changing to media

same for all MP Nova printers.
Changing the position of the

if the labels are very narrow
1. Check that the printer is turned
off. Open the cover and fold the
handle.
2. Loosen the upper nut of the
adjustment screw you want to
move by turning it counter-
clockwise.
3. Slide the adjustment screw into a
new position and tighten the upper
nut. Pull the handle if sliding the
adjustment screw past the finger
nut.

Note:
When tightening the upper
nut. Make sure it is pressing the
sliding rail against the bottom of
the notch and not against the
lower nut.
5. The adjustment screws should
make the print head press evenly
onto the media. Make test prints
to find the correct positions.
