value to move the cut to the right (looking at the printer) or decrease the value to
move the cut to the left. Each step is 0.003”/0.076mm.
4.3.2 Print Adjust
The print adjust allows you to move the print with relation to the cut. There are
two print adjusts, one for the top print station and one for the bottom print
station.
The print adjust may be made two ways: using the Virtual Control Panel (section
8.0) in PCMate Platinum, or using the Remote Front Panel (section 7.0). In the
Virtual Control Panel, the print adjust is found on the Options tab. On the
Remote Front Panel, the print adjust is found under the Print/Cut Adjust menu
item.
The best way to set the print adjust is to use Test Pattern 1 (see section 3.4.1). The
test pattern has a line printed across the tape that is 1” from the cut. Run a few
labels and measure the distance from the cut to the line. Then increase the print
adjust value to move the print to the right, or decrease the print adjust value to
move the print to the left. Each step is 0.003”/0/076mm. Repeat until the line is
in the correct place.
NOTE: It is common practice to use the print and cut adjusts
to “fine-tune” a format. If you do this, you will have to do it for
each format that you use. A better approach is to correct any
print position problems in the format, and to use the Sense To
Cut option to move the cut if necessary. Refer to the PCMate
Platinum manual for details.
4.4 Printer Features
The AVERY DENNISON SNAP 500 printer has many features that can be
controlled by the operator. Each of these features can be selected from either the
Virtual Control Panel (see section 8.0) or the Remote Control / Display Module
(see section 7.0). Unless otherwise noted, these features can be found in the
Options tab or the Virtual Control Panel or the Feature menu of the Remote
Front Panel. Refer to the sections on the Virtual Control Panel or the Remote
Front Panel for instruction on how to access these settings.
4.4.1 Selecting the Printer Language

The printer is shipped with English as the only language.
Other languages must be installed separately. Contact your
