Parameter Meaning Default
Heat level Heating value for compensating for the differing thermal behavior of
printheads. Changing this value is then especially necessary if the
printing intensity has changed after replacing the printhead.
To adapt the printing intensity when using different media, print
speeds or printing contents, you should change the heat level in the
software.
Thesettingsofconguration and software are added together.
The Heat level setting also affects the test printouts.

The absolute shifting is limited by the margins of the print zone. Those
are determined by the width of the printing line on the printhead.
The setting can also be adjusted by the software.

Backfeed Method for backfeeding the label medium.
Backfeeding is necessary in the cutting and peel-off modes since a label
is pushed out passed the front edge of the next label above the print line
when peeling off/cutting.
always: Backfeeding occurs independently of label contents.
smart: Backfeeding only occurs when the next label is not yet completely
prepared when peeling off/cutting the current label. Otherwise, the
