Print Head Leveling Adjustment - Brady Tagus User Manual

6.5 Print Head Leveling Adjustment

When printing on a variety of media sizes and materials, adjustments to the print head may
be needed. Use the print-head-leveling cam to adjust the print head for even pressure
distribution.
Incorrectly adjusting the leveing cam can result in problems such as ribbon wrinkling, label tracking,
platen roller and print head wear.
This procedure assumes that media is loaded and that the printer has just been calibrated.
The following label is located on the inside of the printer. Use these recommended settings
as a starting point when printing with B593 media.
