Section 3: Configuration and Operation

3.5 OFFSETS

There are two offset settings stored in the printer; one for the Cut mode and one for the Tear-Off mode.

These two offsets can be set independently and will remain in the printer until a new command is received changing the setting or until power is turned off.

The default settings can be determined by printing a User Test Label.

The following should be used as starting points for establishing the three Offset values:

Mode	Length of Offset (mm)	Length of Offset (in)	Print head resolution


CUTTER	17.9	0.70	143/215
TEAR-OFF	29.2	1.15	234/350
