against the inside left edge of the printer as viewed from the front of the printer. The
normal reference point is located at the H1, V1 position of the print area in the
normal print orientation (no rotation).
There are two methods available to make sure your printed output will appear
correctly on your label. They are as follows:
1. Send the Base Reference Point command as part of your data to the printer to set a
new base reference point for your label.
Calculate the distance (in dots) from the normal base reference point to the closest edge
of the label. For a 12 dpmm XL410 printer, this would be:
Label Width = 2" x 25.4 mm/in x 12 dpmm = 610 dots
For an 8 dpmm XL400 printer, this would be:
Label Width = 2" x 25.4 mm/in x 8 dpmm = 406 dots
