The label pitch is the distance from the leading edge (the edge

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

that comes out of the printer first) of a label and the leading

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

edge of the next label. Once the position has been set, it can be

 

 

 

 

fine adjusted using the PITCH potentiometer.

Positive (+) digit selection on the display moves the leading

 

 

 

 

 

edge forward and away from the print head while a negative (-)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

selection moves the label’s leading edge incrementally back

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

into the mechanism.
