Calculate RFID Tag Position
You can perform a manual calculation to come up with an estimate of
the RFID Tag Position. Because this value is an estimate, you may need
to slightly adjust the calculated value to achieve the best results.
1 Make sure Start Adjust and Stop Adjust are set to 0.
2 Measure the yChip value, which is the distance between the RFID
chip and the media edge aligned with the tear bar.
3 Note the yAntDist value for your printer:
• UHF RFID: 277 dots, 34.6 mm, 1.362 in
• HF RFID: 293 dots, 36.6 mm, 1.441 in
4 Use this formula to calculate the estimated Tag Position:
TagPosition=yChip - yAntDist
