Tamp Pad/Label Alignment
There are two adjustments that can be made to align the tamp pad with the label:
The inboard edge of the tamp pad must be aligned with the inboard edge of the label.
The upstream edge of the tamp pad must be close enough to the printer peeler bar in
order to properly receive the label.
