Adjusting the Printhead Alignment
You can improve the print quality by adjusting the alignment between
the printhead and the platen roller.
To adjust the printhead alignment
• Turn the adjustment screw counterclockwise or clockwise to
adjust the contact between the printhead and platen roller.
Adjusting the Label Taken Sensor
You can enable the built-in label taken sensor to pause printing until
a printed label is removed from the printer output slot. The printer
continues printing when the label taken sensor no longer detects a
label.
When you are using the protocol, note the following:
• You need to install the optional self-strip module to use the label
taken sensor.
• You need to manually enable the label taken sensor using the
switch next to the sensor before you can enable or disable it using
commands.
