Printing will continue throughout the adjustment process until the printer is paused
or the operating state of the printer is changed. The pattern on the test labels will
show each of the current print stations providing a visual indication of how much
adjustment each print station location needs.
To perform a Print Line Adjustment:
Press the NEXT or PREVIOUS key to cycle through the Print Line Adj menus until
the print station you want to adjust is displayed.
Press the + or - key to shift the selected print position in the desired direction.
Increasingly positive values will move the print position up on the label. Increas-
ingly negative values will move the print position down on the label.
Press the SELECT key. An asterisk (*) appears to confirm your choice.
Repeat steps 1 - 3 until each of the printed bars for stations 1, 2, and 3 are
properly aligned with the bars for station 4.
Note
An efficient way to shift the print line for a given print station is to
measure the variation from the reference bar in the test pattern. Recall
that print stations 1, 2, and 3 are adjusted while referencing print station
4. For example, if the bar printed by station 1 is measured to be
misaligned with the reference bar printed by station 4 by 2 millimeters,
you know that you need to shift station 1 by 24 pixels. The direction of
misalignment will dictate whether you move the print line +24 or -24.
Negative values adjust the line on the label away from the printer;
positive values adjust the line toward the printer.
