Adjust the Printhead Pressure
You may need to adjust the printhead pressure on the printer if:
• you are using thicker or thinner media than previously.
• your labels are printing ligher on one side than the other.
• your thermal transfer ribbon starts to crease.
Do not use a higher printhead pressure than necessary. It may increase
the wear on the printhead and shorten its life.
1 Open the media cover.
2 Use a straight-slot screwdriver to adjust the pressure screw.
• Turn the screw clockwise to increase the pressure resulting in
darker print.
• Turn the screw counterclockwise to decrease the pressure
resulting in lighter print.
3 Test and readjust the printhead pressure if necessary.
