Printhead Pressure Adjustment
To accommodate a variety of media types, the pressure applied by the printhead assembly is adjustable. This pressure is factory set to work with most media types, so this adjustment should only be performed after attempting to improve print quality through the use of the (1) heat and/or (2) print speed software
controls.
When adjusting, use only the minimum pressure necessary for better imaging. To adjust:
1.Load the printer with media, see 'Loading Media'.
2.Print a test label from the host.
3.Using a small coin or screwdriver, turn the Printhead Pressure Adjustment Screw so the arrows point to the desired setting:
Low | Medium | High |
Note: Excessive pressure can reduce the service life of the printhead and platen roller.
