Media Width Adjustment - Datamax PE Operator's Manual

5.2 Media Width Adjustment

The printer is able to use a wide variety of media types, widths and
thickness. The printhead mechanism has a feature that allows the
user to make a leveling adjustment. This adjustment is required
when using labels that are less than 4" wide.
Load the Printer with the chosen media. Begin printing your label
format. Rotate the Head Level Adjustment Knob, (see Figure 5-1)
clockwise until the print quality along edge starts to lighten. Finally,
rotate the knob back just enough to achieve uniform print quality
across the label, see below.
