The Label Alignment function is intended for use when the label length is less than the distance
between the printhead and the media sensor or where label waste at power-up is a concern. Label
Alignment (see table below) is not recommended for label lengths greater than 6.5 inches or for
media containing 2 or more form lengths.
Label Stock Label Alignment Setting
Continuous NO
6.5 inches or less YES or AUTO
6.5 inches or more NO
Multiple length labels NO
The Label Alignment function is chosen via the menu system or by host commands. The three
possible modes, YES, AUTO, and NO, are detailed in the following sections.
Label Alignment = YES
In this mode, the operator must supply an ‘ALIGN LENGTH’
value. This value must be physically measured from leading
edge to leading edge of two successive labels, as shown. The
measurement must be as accurate as possible. For very short
labels, errors as small as 0.01” can result in noticeable print
variations on the labels between the media sensor and the
printhead.
The measured value must be sent to the printer via the host
computer or entered using the Printer Setup Mode.
Then, in Normal Mode, press and hold the
FEED
button
(about 4 seconds). The printer will align the label to the top
of form position.
If media with a different label length is subsequently loaded, the ‘ALIGN LENGTH’ must
be recalculated and re-entered.
