plate. This method can be especially useful for black marks. Be sure to measure the
lateral position of the black marks with a ruler before loading the media.
Adjusting the Printhead Pressure
The pressure of the thermal printhead against the direct thermal media is factory-
adjusted, but you may need to adjust the printhead pressure to accommodate
thicker or thinner media.
Do not use a higher printhead pressure than necessary because it may increase
wear of the printhead and shorten printhead life.
