Label stop position
Prerequisites:
– The label length must be specified.
The next label to be dispensed waits in the label stop
position. Here it is useful if the label protrudes over the
dispensing edge a little [46].
ALS 20X and ALS 256 labellers are pre-
configured for use with the supplied label
sensor. If this sensor is employed, the label
stop position setting will only require minimal
correction.
Correcting the default setting:
£ Call the
LABEL SETUP > Lab. stop offset
function.
£ Increase the value to increase the overhang or
lower the value to reduce the overhang.
The value ‘0’ will cause the label to stop with its front
edge directly under the label sensor.
The front edge of the next label to be dispensed should
be flush with the dispensing edge:
£ Enter the distance [46A] between the label sensor
and the dispensing edge.
The front edge of the label to be dispensed should
overhang:
£ Add the length of the overhang to the distance
between the label sensor and the dispensing edge.
