AGD

NUMBER OF STEPS TO ACTIVATE GAP DETECTOR

 

 

The number of steps (dots) from the front edge of the label before the gap detector

 

circuitry is activated. This value is usually defaulted. It is not defaulted when using stock

 

that is smaller than 2.3 inches, the distance between the gap detector and the dot row, or

 

on larger labels, when skipping over pre-print, gaps, or paper flutter that may cause the

 

gap detector to trigger incorrectly. There is a long equation to manually calculate this

 

value for small labels, but auto-sizing (^D39) the label will produce this value accurately

 

and quickly.

 

SPG

NUMBER OF STEPS PAST GAP

 

 

The steps (dots) to move the label after detection of a label gap. This facilitates using

 

very small label stock - less than 2.3 inches (the distance between the dot row and the

 

gap detector). Use auto-sizing (^A39) to quickly evaluate this parameter for small stock.

 

It may also be necessary to adjust this value if using special stock: For example, if using

 

black line stock with a perforation that is not on the black line. SPG would need to be

 

manipulated so that the printer can print the label between the perforations, yet still trigger

 

on the black line. In this case SPG would be calculated as the distance from the black

 

line to the perforation.

 

OFX

X DIRECTION OFFSET

 

 

Equally moves all of the fields to the right. Useful for centering a label format on

different

 

label stock. For example: Transferring a small label layout to a larger label stock. (Note:

 

This command consumes software time and may decrease the maximum print speed.)

OFY

Y DIRECTION OFFSET

 

 

Equally moves all of the fields up on the label. Also useful for adjusting a label format to a

 

different stock. (Note: This command consumes software time and may decrease the

 

maximum print speed.)
