B. ADJUSTING PRINT ALIGNMENT/LABEL OFFSETS
If your previous experience with printing is limited to printing
letters and cards to DIN A4 paper you probably are not
familiar with an essential part of label printing – Print
Alignment. Standard printers feed a sheet and start printing
based on the start of the sheet. They also prohibit printing to
the edge of the sheet. This is to avoid any need for alignment.
The LX910e senses the beginning of the label with an optical
edge. Because of this it is necessary to align the printer to work
with specific types of label stock.
The LX910e comes from the factory calibrated to print exactly
to the edge of Primera label stock. However, due to variability
it may be necessary to fine tune these settings at the beginning
of each roll. This is especially true for other non-Primera brand
label stock.
Important Note: Before adjusting alignment settings first print one label at
the quality level you intend for the entire print job. This will ensure
the label stock is moving at the same speed and the stock sensor will
sense the gap in the same way.
Adjust print alignment using the LX910Config. Click on the
Alignment Tab (Third Tab).
