4.15 HEAD POSITION ADJUSTMENT
Head position adjustment occurs depending on the type and thickness of the utilized media, and the head (ribbon)
position misalignment is corrected. The head position adjustment value is entered as a measurement of the line
segment misalignment.
The adjustment pattern is printed, and the correction value is entered in the head position adjustment.
The adjustment pattern outputs two layers. Measure the first layer and input the correction value for Head 1 Position
Adjustment. Measure the second layer and input the correction value for Head 2 Position Adjustment.
Adjust after running distance adjustment. Refer to "4.14 DISTANCE ADJ. (Distance Adjustment)".
• Adjustment for every replacement and change is necessary as adjustment values will differ based
label materials, laminate materials, the presence/absence of laminate, ribbon type, and printing
resolution.
• The material may expand or shrink to varying degrees based on the usage environment
(temperature, humidity).
• Set up 3 types of ink ribbons. If 3-type ink ribbons are not set, "Head Position Adjustment" cannot
be run. After outputting with a user pattern, it is possible to directly input the misalignment and
make adjustments.
• "Distance Adjustment" and "Head Position Adjustment" are possible with the pattern output in the
"adjustment pattern print".
• The head position adjustment value setting is stored even when the power is turned off.
• 130 mm width is necessary in the label material (media).
