4. Turn the Power OFF and, while pressing the PAUSE Key, turn the Power
back ON to initialize the “Head Alignment” test, or download a format you
wish to use while performing this adjustment. Pause the printer and proceed.
5. With the head still latched, slightly loosen the Position Locking Screws “H”
and the two screws holding the Printhead Support Bracket “D”.
6. Move Head Mounting Bracket “B” forward or back as required by grasping
the Strip Plate “F” at the screw mounts. Observe the relative movement of
the Head Mounting Bracket “B” where you have outlined the Head Bracket
wings. Re-tighten the Position Locking Screws “H” then check print quality.
7. Print one or two labels and check for improvement or degradation of print.
Repeat steps 5 through 7 until satisfactory results are achieved. (Movement of
1 mm or less should be attempted between each print quality check. Try to
maintain parallelism by observing the horizontal lines relative to the top of
the printed labels using the Pause key “Head Alignment” test pattern.)
8. When completed, tighten the screws on the Printhead Support Bracket “D”.
