2.7 Adjustment Knob
2.7.1 Print Head Pressure Adjustment Knob
The print head pressure adjustment knob has 5 levels of adjustment. Because the printer’s paper alignment is to the left side of mechanism, different media widths require different pressure to print correctly. Therefore it may require adjusting the pressure knob to get your best print quality. For example, if the label width is 4”, adjust both print head pressure adjustment knobs to the same level. If the label is less than 2” wide, increase the left side print head pressure by rotating the adjustment knob clockwise and decrease the right side pressure by rotating theadjustment knob counter-clockwise to level 1.
2.7.2 Print Head Burn Line Adjustment Knob
The print head burn line adjustment knobs are used to fine tune the print quality for different thickness of media. Turning the knobs adjusts the print head’s burn line forward or backward as it relates to the platen roller. Caution: Incorrectly adjusting these knobs can lead to poor print quality and may cause damage to the printer. Proceed with caution. The print head burn line default is set for general purpose printing media. Poor print quality when using thicker media may be due to the print head burn line not being at the optimized position. To improve the print quality, increase the head pressure or adjust the knobs counter-clockwise to move print head burn line toward the paper out direction then print again. Continue to adjust the burn line position and test print as necessary until the printout image is clear.
