48-466 Operators Manual

AGD

NUMBER OF STEPS TO ACTIVATE GAP DETECTOR
This parameter selects the number of steps (dots) that the printer should skip before gap
sensing is activated. This value is usually defaulted. It is not defaulted when using stock
that contains pre-print or gaps that may cause the gap detector to trigger incorrectly.

SPG

NUMBER OF STEPS PAST GAP
The number of steps to advance the label after detection of a label gap.

It may also be necessary to adjust this value if using material with a sense position not
located at the end of the stock.

The 48-466 uses the following formula to determine the SPG setting:

If label height is greater than or equal to 305 then SPG=305

If label height is less than 305, subtract (LSY+GAP) from 305 until the answer is
negative, then add (LSY+GAP) back to become positive again. Subtract the AGD value
(usually 1) and the result will be the correct SPG.

OFX

X DIRECTION OFFSET
This parameter moves all the fields in the X direction without changing the fields
themselves.

OFY

Y DIRECTION OFFSET
This parameter moves all the fields in the Y direction without changing the fields
themselves.
