66 W-Class
Example 1 – Over adjustment:
Too much adjustment produces an image
that fades across the label. To correct this,
decrease the setting of the Printhead
Leveling Cam.
Example 2 – Correct adjustment:
When properly adjusted, a complete image
with even print contrast across the label is
produced (see note below).
ã Note: Under-adjustment of the Leveling Cam: Problems can include ribbon
wrinkling, label tracking, and platen roller and printhead wear.
5.1.2 Pressure Adjustment
To accommodate a variety of
media types, the printhead pressure
is adjustable. The printer arrives
factory-set for most media types,
so this adjustment should be made
only after attempting to improve
print quality through heat and print
speed changes (see Section 2.1.1).
If making this adjustment, only use
the minimum pressure necessary
for image improvement. To
increase pressure, turn the
Adjustment Screws clockwise; to
decrease pressure, turn the screws
counterclockwise. In addition, the
Adjustment Screws should be
turned equally to maintain even
pressure distribution.
ã Note: Excessive pressure can reduce the service life of the printhead and
platen roller. Contact Datamax Technical Support with any questions
regarding this procedure.
