6.2 Media Width Adjustment
When printing on less than full width media, adjust the printhead-leveling cam for even pressure distribution, as follows:
1. With media loaded in the printer, print a label and
examine it.
Non-display printers:
Simultaneously press the
PAU SE
+
FEED
buttons
Display printers:
See Section 5.3.1
2. While observing the printed labels, loosen the
Thumbscrew and move it to the left most position.
(see Example 1, below).
3. Next, move the Thumbscrew to the right until the
printed labels contain a complete, even image (see
Example 2). Tighten the Thumbscrew.
Example 1 – Over adjustment:
Too much adjustment produces
an image that fades across the
label. To correct this, move the
Thumbscrew to the right.
Example 2 – Correct adjustment:
The proper adjustment produces a
complete image with even print
contrast across the label (see note
below).
Note: Under-adjustment of the Leveling Cam can also cause problems including ribbon wrinkling, label tracking, and platen roller
and printhead wear. When changing to a different width of label, always adjust the Leveling Cam.
