Print Quality Adjustment
!.
Tangent
- Move the tangent adjust knob left or right to improve print quality. In general, the best print will
be slightly to the left of center.
2.
Pressure
- Adjust printhead pressure to get desired print definition. If the pressure seems like it is getting
too tight, readjust tangent. Don’t tighten the printhead to maximum or damage to the printhead could
occur.
3.
Strobe
- Adjust strobe for print darkness and bar code scanability. Adjust one increment at a time.
4.
Ink
- Use ink unwind and take-up tensions adjustments to eliminate any ink wrinkles or skid marks.
