Printhead position Y
Using this setting will shift the entire print image up or down the label. This
parameter should only be altered if you are printing the same format on several
printers, and the printed image is not consistent on each printer.
NOTICE !
Changing the Printhead position value Y also effects the peel position
and cut position as well. It will be necessary to readjust the values for the
peel and cut positions using the previous value +/- the printhead position
value.
The Printhead position Y value to be changed will be flashing on the display.
It is possible to adjust the value for individual jobs using software. The front
panel values and software command values will be totaled together for printing.
Tear-off position
When the "Tear-off mode" (see chapter "Print parameters") is active, an
additional feed forward will take place after completion of the print job. This
additional feed makes it possible to tear off the last label at the tear-off plate.
Using the setting "Tear-off position" the length of the additional feed can be
adjusted.
Demand sensor - Peel position
This parameter allows for adjustment of the presentation position of the
printed label on the dispense plate.
Peel position with the initial offset value of “0“ causes the printed label to be
peeled off from the liner leaving approximately a .1“ (2mm) wide strip of the
label still adhering to the liner. The amount of label left adhering to the liner
can be altered with this parameter, using an offset in the range from -9.9mm to
+9.9mm. Positive offset values cause more of the label surface to protrude
past the dispense plate.
The Peel position value to be changed will be flashing on the display.
The offset values from “Peel position“ and from software are added together for
execution. The software value does not replace the “Peel position“ value, but
temporarily adjusts it for the current job.
Demand sensor - Backfeed delay
The "Backfeed delay" adjustment allows you to input an amount of time in
milliseconds between when the label is removed from the peel edge and when
the backfeed is executed. Using "Backfeed delay" should prevent labels from
becoming jammed between the printhead and print roller when the liner is fed
back too quickly.
