Using Forms Adjust
If the label prints too close to one edge, you can reposition it by using the
X forms adjust and Y forms adjust features. The X forms adjust controls
the position of the printing area along the length of the label. The Y forms
adjust controls the position of the printing area along the width of the
label.
The following illustration shows the default X and Y origins.

Default X and Y origins:
This illustration shows the default X and Y origins. You can
control the default X origin (top of form) with PrintSet or with the Test and Service DIP
switches. You can control the default Y origin with the DIP switches only.
Note:
An image printed on direct thermal media may have an X origin
position, which is slightly different than the same image printed on
thermal transfer media. Always use X forms adjust and Y forms adjust with
the same media type that you plan to use for printing labels.
The default X origin is 0.10 inch (20 dot increments) from the leading
edge of the label. You can move the X origin forward or backward 30
increments, where each increment is 5 mil.
The default Y origin is 0.00 inch from the edge of the label. You can move
the Y origin down 30 increments, where each increment is 5 mil.
