Print Width

Specify the width of the labels being used. The default value is the maximum width for the

 

printer, based on the printhead’s DPI value.

 

Note • Setting the width too narrow can result in portions of a label format not being

 

printed on the media. Setting the width too wide wastes formatting memory and can

 

cause the printer to print off of the label and onto the platen roller. This setting can

 

affect the horizontal position of the label format if the image was inverted using the

 

^POI ZPL II command.
