3.6 Print Head Offset Adjustments
CAUTION Ensure the print head offset adjustments are made
properly according to the type of print media (thickness &
width). Incorrect adjustments can cause failure of the
print head.
The printer has already been factory set with labels 118 mm in width. However,
the print head offset adjustments may be needed depending on the width of the
paper and the paper quality. If the print quality is inferior because of the paper,
adjust it according to the following:
1 When print is unclear or blurred because of poor paper quality:
Adjust the offset between the print head and the platen by turning
the offset adjustment screw. The print head offset adjustments are
made by changing the inclination of the print head to the platen.
This has already been factory set, but the offset may need changing
if the print head was replaced or disassembled. Also, it may need
changing if a different type of paper was used. In those cases,
make adjustments according to the criteria below.
a) Standard paper, label paper (slick paper, craft paper, etc.),
and thermal paper
b) Thick paper (tag or other similar paper)
