Fine-Tuning The Top Of Form Position - Intermec EasyCoder 3240 Getting Started Manual

Fine-Tuning the Top of Form Position

If your label format prints too close to the front or back edge of the label, you
can fine-tune the position with the top of form (TOF) switch. The TOF switch
controls the position of the format forward or backward along the length of the
label.
This feature is especially important if you are printing small labels in self-strip
mode because you can easily adjust for slight shifts in the label format without
stopping the printer or sending down software commands.
Only use the TOF switch to fine-tune your label format position. This is
important because the printer returns to your initial TOF setting when you:
•
cycle printer power.
•
lift the printhead.
Use the TOF switch to fine-tune the format position after you design the label.
Do not use the TOF switch to design your label format. Use PrintSet or the Top
of Form, Set software command <SI>F to control the initial TOF setting. For
help on using this command, see the PrintSet help or the IPL Programming
Reference Manual.
The TOF switch is a small rocker switch located on the lower outboard plate of
the printer.
