Designing Labels Using LDS
4.4.1 HFM (Number of Fields in Layout)
HFM
This parameter is used to specify the number of fields in the layout. If more format fields are
defined than specified in the HFM parameter, they will be ignored and will not print. The
HFM was set to a value of 5 in the format used to create the sample in Error! Reference
source not found.. This means that a total of five format fields are to be generated. If the
HFM were changed to 4, only the first four format fields would be generated.
4.4.2 LSX (Print Head Size X)
HFM,
This parameter is used to specify the width of the print head using dots as the unit of
measure. The maximum width of the LSX parameter is determined by the width of the print
head. LDS has been specifically designed to accommodate a variety of print head widths.
These are the LSX values that should be used for proper print registration with various print
heads:
Print Width
2.207" (56.05 mm)
2.133" (54.186 mm)
3.153" (80.08 mm)
3.200" (81.28 mm)
4.095" (104.00 mm)
4.110" (108.416 mm)
4.4.3 LSY (Label Size Y)
HFM, LSX,
This parameter is used to specify the height of the label using dots as the unit of measure.
The maximum height is virtually unlimited and is dependant only with available printer
memory. The label sample (Error! Reference source not found.) LSY measures 3" or 900
dots.
4.4.4 WEB (Web Size)
HFM, LSX, LSY,
The WEB parameter is the width, measured in dots, of the webbing or backing material that
is found on the left side of a die-cut label. This parameter is used to introduce an offset to
accommodate the backing of die-cut media. The label sample (Error! Reference source
not found.) WEB measures .0625" or 19 dots.
