Adjust Printhead Pressure and Toggle Position

Adjust Printhead Pressure and Toggle Position

Print quality depends on the labels and ribbon used as well as the toggle pressure and position. Make sure that your labels and ribbon are acceptable for your application. If they are, check the toggle position and then the printhead pressure.

Toggle Position Adjustment

You may need to adjust the toggles if printing is too light on one side or if thick labels are used. If the toggle pressure is too light or uneven, the labels and ribbon may slip.

To position the toggles, complete these steps:

1.Loosen the locking nuts (1) at the top of the toggle assemblies. (The 90XiIIIPlus and 96XiIIIPlus printers have only one toggle.)

1

2.Slide the toggles until they provide even pressure on the media.

If you are using a 90XiIIIPlus or 96XiIIIPlus printer, position the single toggle over the center of the labels.

All other printer models have two toggles. If the labels are too narrow to fit both toggles, position one toggle over the center of the labels and decrease the pressure on the unused toggle.

3.Tighten the locking nuts.
