.125" x 203 DPI = 25 dots.
DRM (203) =
The Distance to Registration Mark is from the leading edge of
the printable area to the next registration mark;
1" x 203 DPI = 203 dots.
The SPG may also be determined by adding a line at dot row #1 using Line Draw (See
Section 4.7) and adjusting the SPG number up and down to get desirable registration with
the line printing at the bottom edge of the media.

HFM, LSX, LSY, WEB, GAP, DPS , LCB, AGD, SPG,
OFX
, OFY
This parameter is used to move or offset all format fields in the X direction without altering
the format fields coordinates themselves.

4.5 Sample Header
This is the header for the format used to generate the printed sample in Figure 4-2 followed
by a summary of the header values.
5, 1280, 900,19 ,38 ,7 ,0 ,1 ,395, 0, 0 <CR>
5 = 5 format fields are following the header.
1280 = LSX (total print head dots) is 1280 dots.
900 = LSY (label height) measures 3” or 900 dots.
19 = WEB measures 0.0625” or 19 dots.
38 = GAP measures 0.125” or 38 dots.
7 = Print speed (DPS) of 7 = 4.5 inches per second.
0 = LCB of 0 for die-cut labels.
1 = AGD of 1 step.
385 = SPG of 385 for proper placement of the next label.
0 = No X offset.
0 = No Y offset.
<CR> = A carriage return must follow the header.
