Adjusting the Print Darkness
Use the darkness adjust control in combination with the PrintSet software
configuration tool to fine-tune the darkness of print on your labels. The fine
adjustments compensate for variations in the media (“lot to lot”), the printhead,
or the printer. Set the darkness adjust control after you enter the media
sensitivity number.
To adjust the print darkness
1. Locate the darkness adjust control on the back of the printer.
2. Use a small straight-slot screwdriver to adjust the print darkness.
• To increase the print darkness, turn the control clockwise.
• To decrease the print darkness, turn the control counterclockwise.
