Adjusting for the paper width
This printer is adjusted so that quality printing can be obtained without any adjustments.
However, in certain situations, better results can be obtained if you adjust the "head pressure
balance" to compensate for different widths of label paper used.
The head pressure balance knob adjusts the amount of pressure being applied along different
sections along the length of the print head. For suggested settings of the pressure knob (1 to 5),
see the table below:

Note:
Adjustments are only necessary if print quality is not satisfactory. Otherwise, you do not need to
vary the head pressure balance.
