Intermec EasyCoder 501 XP – User's Guide
The Feedadjust part of the Setup Mode controls how much of
the media is fed out or pulled back before and/or after the actual
printing. These settings are global and will be effected regardless
of which program is run.
Note that the fi rmware uses the front edges of labels w. gaps, the ends
of detection slots, and the forward edges of black marks for detection,
all seen in relation to the feed direction.
Start Adjust
The Start Adjust value is given as a positive or negative number
of dots (1 dot = 0.125 mm = 4.9 mils). Default value is 0, which
places the origin a certain distance back from the forward edge
of the copy.
• A positive start adjustment means that the specifi ed length
of media will be fed out before the printing starts. Thus, the
origin is moved further back from the forward edge of the
copy.
• A negative start adjustment means that the specifi ed length of
media will be pulled back before the printing starts. Thus, the
origin is moved towards the forward edge of the copy.
Stop Adjust
The Stop Adjust value is given as a positive or negative number
of dots (1 dot = 0.125 mm = 4.9 mils). Default value is 0,
which stops the media feed in a position suitable for tear off
operation.
• A positive stop adjustment means that the normal media
feed after the printing is completed will be increased by the
specifi ed value.
• A negative stop adjustment means that the normal media
feed after the printing is completed will be decreased by the
specifi ed value.
