9.2.3 Label field co–ordinates
To program a new label format each field requires two co–ordinates: X1,Y1 and
X2,Y2. These set the field’s size and position. The X1,Y1 co–ordinate is at the
field’s top left–hand corner and the X2,Y2 at the opposite corner (bottom
right–hand).
Each co–ordinate consists of two three–digit numbers (for example: X1,Y1 =
003,195). The numbers are obtained by measuring, in millimetres, the distance
between the co–ordinate and a reference point in the X and Y planes. These
distances are called x1 and y1 or x2 and y2 respectively. These distances are
then multiplied by a plane–dependent conversion factor (as the printer cannot
interpret a measurement) to give the co–ordinates X1 and Y1 or X2 and Y2.
Refer to Table 9.2.
NOTE: The reference point, or start point, is always at the bottom left–hand
corner of the label, as read.
