S - Set Label Size
please refer also to the "option command" (" O " ) to get more infos for special options such as
mirroring, reverse printing or double sided printing etc.
Example:
This example defines a label size of 50 mm height, distance from one label to the next label (label
height + gap) is 52 mm and the width of the label is 100 mm. Displacement horizontal and vertical is
zero.
A couple of dependencies:
All numeric values are either in millimeters or in inches, depending on the selected country setting of
the printer or depending on the „m „ command.
Maximum values depend on the width of the printhead and on the amount of memory which is
responsible for the maximum height of the label. Both parameters depend on the used printer type.
Please refer to the operator´s manual for more information.
Special note for double sided printers (XD4+...):
The printheads are treated like a 8 inch printhead, splitted in 2 sections. One good method is to
create a label in the full width of an 8 inch wide printhead and position the required data on the left
half for the lower printhead and the right half for the upper printhead.
Maximum width would be 2 x105.6 mm on the XD+ with 300 dpi printhead.
Setting the correct label size is one of the important points to get a precise position of your label
contents.
