6.5.1 Changing the Print Position
If the image does not print in the correct position on the packaging film, you can change the
position by changing the Horizontal or Vertical Registration. This allows you to move the image
inside the printing area window of the machine and to make small adjustments to the print
location without moving the printer on the bracket. If the image is moved outside the print
window or the available ribbon width, part of the image will not be printed.
• The Vertical Registration determines the position across the width of the packaging
film or printhead.
• The Horizontal Registration determines the position along the length of the
packaging film.
To change the print position, proceed as follows:
1. Navigate to Tools > Setup > Printhead. The Printhead screen is displayed (Figure 6-8 on page
6-10).
2. Touch either Horizontal Registration or Vertical Registration on the printhead setup screen
to open the page for editing the required settings.
3.
Touch or to make small adjustments in the parameter settings.
Alternatively, do one of the following to make changes in the settings:
• Type a new value using the keypad.
• Touch the Min, Max, or Default buttons to select the minimum, maximum, or default
(standard) values.
4. Touch to save the settings.
5. Touch to return to the Home screen.
Note: The same adjustments can be made via on the Home screen.
