G. CREATING A FULL BLEED PRINT
1. If you are having trouble making the image cover the
entire label, first make sure the image is printing at least as
big as the label size you have selected. Increase the selected
page size by .05 inches on the width and .05 inches on the
height to create an over bleed. Make sure under scaling
options to select ‘Fit to Page’ in the print dialogue box if
printing from Illustrator.
Left Margin Offset. You must decrease the Left Margin
Offset to center the over bleed on the label. If you over
bleed by .05 inches, you will need to decrease the Left
Margin Offset by 12. This will center the page size increase
so there is a .05 inch over bleed on both the left and right
sides.
TOF. Decrease the Top Of Form by 10. This is cause the
printer to start printing before the label and ensure a fully
printed label.
Note: It is best to over bleed as little as possible to avoid excess ink on the
label backing. Also, over bleeding too much will cause the printer to
skip labels. This is because the printer sops printing too late to sense
the next label.
