• Head check is a reference for checking for a broken element of the print head. This
function does not guarantee barcode readability. A regular barcode reader test is
required. White voids may occur during printing and there may be some shift in the
timing of the head error detection by the head check function.
For the outputted label after the head error, perform the scanner reader of the printed
barcode to check the label.
