After setting Print Speed, the next screen allows you to set the Print
Darkness—the darkness of the print on paper.
This setting can be set from 1 (lightest) to 5 (darkest). The default
setting is 3.
Press the / buttons to change the setting. Press the ENTER
button to confirm a setting and proceed to the next screen.
After setting Print Darkness, the next screen allows you to set the
Print Position Offset—which refers to the vertical and horizontal
shifting of the entire print area, relative to the start position of
printing (V=0, H=0), defined by default to be the bottom right hand
corner of the label.
Use the / buttons to select the V or H setting, and the /
buttons to change a highlighted setting. Press the ENTER
button to confirm a setting and proceed to the next screen.
The V setting is for the Vertical print offset. A positive (+) offset
means the printing is shifted towards the print head; a negative (-)
offset means shifting away from the print head. If the Print Pitch
setting has been used to offset the vertical start position, then all
Vertical offset adjustments are made relative to that start position.
The H setting is for the Horizontal print offset. The + or - prefix
determines whether the offset is to the left or to the right of the
reference point.
After setting the Vertical and Horizontal OFFSET, press ENTER
to proceed to the next setting.
