PRINT OFFSET
V:+0000 H:+0000
Vertical Offset is the distance down from the leading edge (the
edge of the label that comes out of the printer first) to the first
vertical print position. A positive setting moves the label edge
out of the printer while making it negative moves it bsack into
the printer. Horizontal Offset is distance that the label image is
shifted either to the right or left on the label. The image is shifted
to the left (towards the inside edge of the label) for a positive
setting and it is shifted to the right (towards the outside edge of
the label) for a negative setting. This setting changes the base
reference point for all subsequent label jobs. It’s effect is
identical to the <ESC>A3 Base Reference point command.
Since the printer moves the label in discrete steps equal to the
size of the print dot, the units of measure for Vertical and
Horizontal Offset distance is dots. The maximum values that can
be set is dependent up[on the print head resolution. If you
exceed the allowable limit, the printer will not accept the setting.
1. Use the LINE key to step the counter to the desired setting.
The display will increment one step for each time the FEED
key is pressed.
2. Once the setting is correct, pressing the ENTER key will
accept the setting and advance to the next display.
Note: This setting can be overriden by the Base Reference Point
Command.
SET CALENDAR
YES NO
The Calendar is a optional feature in the M10e printer allowing
the date and time to be set manually using the LCD Display or
via the <ESC>WT Calendar Set command. This screen will not
be displayed if the Calendar Option is not installed. The last
setting, set either manually via software command, received by
the printer will be the value used. The format of the display is
YY/MM/DD hh:mm (Year/Month/Day/hours:minutes).The date
format is fixed and cannot be changed. This display will only
appear if the Calendar Option is installed in the printer.

cursor is over the YES. If the Calendar feature is to be disabled,
press the LINE key until the cursor is over the NO selection.
