4.5 Printhead adjustments

Printhead adjustments should be made according to the type of media (paper), using the printhead

adjustment lever located on the back of the printhead assembly.

Generally, for media with moderate stiffness (labels), position the printhead adjustment lever to the

middle of the range to put the printhead in middle position, and for media with greater stiffness (tags or

card), lower the adjustment lever to the lower level to put the printhead in forward position. For media

with little stiffness, raise the adjustment lever to the upper level to put the printhead in a rearward

position.
