2.3 LOADING LABELS AND TAGS (CONT’D)

Adjusting for the paper width

This printer is adjusted so that quality printing can be obtained without any adjustments. However, in certain situations, better results can be obtained if you adjust the “head pressure balance” to compensate for different widths of label paper used.

The head pressure balance knob adjusts the amount of pressure being applied along different sections along the length of the print head. For suggested settings of the pressure knob (1 to 5), see the table below:

SETTING
