BASE REFERENCE POINT
NOTES
Use of this command will set the printer's Vertical/Horizontal Offset configuration until a new Base
Reference Point command is issued or the setting is changed from the operator panel.
This command may be used more than once in a print job.
An alternative to using this command is to make changes to your current Horizontal and Vertical Print
Position commands.
Example: If the current base reference point is H=1, V=1 and you wish to move all the fields on your
label downward vertically by 150 dots. You could either, (1) add the Base Reference Point command or,
(2) change all the vertical position commands by an additional 150 dots.
For a more detailed example of the Base Reference Point command, refer to the Introduction unit.
The printer will not "wrap" if any part of a character or image extends beyond the last print dot position.
It will disappear and not be visible on any part of the label.
