Units for position and length
The print positions may be specified in either inch or metric system.
Switching between the two systems is accomplished through software.
The print positions can be freely designated within the maximum label size,
regardless of which system you use.
n
Inch system
Basic unit (point):
The position of each row address (in the direction of main scanning) and
column address (in the direction of subscanning) is designated in 0.01-inch
units. In the case of the 400 dpi head, if the print position changes by 1 point,
it will change by 2 dots.
1 point
100 point
n
Metric system
Basic unit (point):
The position of each row address and column address is designated in
0.1-mm units. Since there is a slight difference between the main and
subscanning density and the point value, the nearest dot number to the
designated address is selected in one dot (0.125 mm) units.
1 point
100 point
The basic unit is common to all label format and system-level commands.
The label format commands are used to specify the position, length,
whole-screen offset, etc. The system-level commands are used to
specify the maximum paper length, home-position offset, etc.
