4.1.2 Adjusting Density (Darkness)
The contrast knob for adjusting print density (darkness) is located on the front of
each print station (see Figure 13). You may adjust the contrast knob while
printing labels.
The nominal contrast setting is in the center of the rotation.
1. To increase print density, rotate the contrast knob clockwise.
2. To decrease print density, rotate the contrast knob counterclockwise.
You can manually rotate the contrast knob 270 degrees. At maximum value, the
print will not become any darker. In fact, it may actually begin to get lighter.
CAUTION: For extended print head life, use the lowest
print contrast the produces acceptable print quality.
4.2 Adjusting the Stacker
The stacker on your SNAP 700 printer is adjustable in four ways: the position of
the stacker on the mounting pins, the height of the stack, the angle at which
labels are accumulated in the stack, and the angle of the platform. Different
settings of these adjustments may be needed depending on the length and width
