A. SOLVING REGISTRATION PROBLEMS

Image is Vertically Offset

The LX400 decides where to start printing by detecting the start of die-cut label, detecting a black mark on the back or detecting a thru-hole that corresponds to the start of the label.

The following items can cause the label sensor to improperly detect the start of a label:

1.TOF Offset. TOF stands for Top of Form and this setting allows you to fine tune the alignment of your printing on your label stock. This will be factory calibrated. If fine tun- ing is needed, increase this setting to move the image down on the label; decrease this setting to move the image up on the label. The unit of measure is 0.1mm. To access go to Start - Control Panel - Printers and Faxes - Right click "Color Label 400" - Choose Printing Preferences -

Select Offsets. See image in the dialog below for graphical example.
