STEP PROCEDURE
1.Refer to Section 7.2 and run a test print. Fig.
2.By adjusting the Allen head screws on the rear of the Stay, you can move the print head forward or backward. This allows you to position the burnline of the print head directly and evenly over the apex of the platen surface. Fig.
3.While printing the test pattern, adjust the Allen adjustment screws for the best print quality. NOTE: It is vital that a known good platen be in the unit.
4.Verify the image is even on the label by measuring the distance from the bottom of the barcode to the bottom of the label on both sides. Refer to Fig.
5.If you are unable to get the unit to produce good print quality, proceed to Section 5.4 Print Head Balance Adjustment and perform the adjustment; then return to this section and redo the Print Head Position Adjustment.
NOTE: You may have to do both of these adjustments concurrently several times to achieve proper print quality and alignment.
