backing, try label stock that has a black mark on the back to show where the label begins. You will need to change the Stock Sensor Mode in the Status Monitor.

3.Insufficient Label Gap Distance. See Section 2A for label specifications.

4.Page Size is Bigger than Label Stock Size. If the page size set in the driver is larger than the actual label stock, ink will be printed on the gaps and the sensor will start looking for a gap too late. This can cause label skipping or inconsistent print starting points.

5.Portrait / Landscape. If the Portrait / Landscape setting does not correspond to the label stock installed this will also cause the printer to print over the gap and onto the next label. Make sure this is set correctly.

6.Stock Sensor Position. Circular, nonstandard label shapes or multiple labels across will require precise adjustment of the label sensor. If you are using circular or other non rectangular die-cut labels see Section 2C for instructions.

Three things can affect this issue.

Label Stock Loading. It is very important to correctly load the label stock so that there is no space between the throat guides and the label liner edge. If there is a gap between the throat guides and the label stock it may "walk" back and forth causing inconsistent horizontal printing. See section 2B for label stock loading instructions and tips.

Left Margin Offset. This adjustment is found on the Alignment tab of the PTStatus monitor. See Section 4D.
