Printer Configuration and Adjustment

Adjust the Printhead Pressure and Toggle Position
The printhead pressure toggles can be adjusted to create more or less pressure, as needed. They can
also be moved from side to side to adjust the pressure in certain areas.
If the toggles are not positioned correctly or adjusted to apply the correct pressure, the following types of
issues may result:
• media and ribbon may slip
• ribbon may wrinkle
• media may move from side to side during printing
• printing may be too light or too dark on one side of the media
Use the lowest printhead pressure necessary to produce good print quality. Higher pressures may cause
premature wear on the printhead elements.
