Darkness POT: This POT is used to fine adjust the print darkness
due to variations in different media’s and

Note: Do not use this control for adjusting individual label printing
jobs, rather, use the software control with the ALT-P Print

or the proper command in RS-232 mode to vary darkness of
printing on a per-label-format basis.
