Setting the Label Top Position

The Label Top Position controls the initial vertical print position on the label (viewed as the label exits the printer). The Default position is referenced to the leading edge of the label which follows the one to be printed. Refer to Figure 11. If there is a lengthy web between labels, the label format may begin printing on the backing material. To set the position where the format begins printing, change the Label Top Position value.

-nnnnnnn +

Press the right oval key to increase the value , or press the left oval key to decrease the value. Each positive number moves the label top position down by one dot row; each negative number moves the position up by one dot row.

Default: +0

Range: -120 to +120

Press the NEXT key to display LEFT POSITION.
