CHAPTER 5 TPCL MODE (INTERFACE COMMANDS)
B-EP
Series
5-17
Notes
(1)
The fine adjustment values are backed up in memory (retained even if the power is turned
off).
(2)
The factory default value is 0.0 mm.
(3) The fine adjustment values (print position, strip position) changed by the Print Position
Fine Adjust Command in the LABEL mode, are also effective in the TPCL mode.
(4) When print position and strip position fine adjustment is selected in the SYSTEM mode
(through key operations on the printer), the fine adjustment value is a sum of the value in
the fine adjustment command and the system mode fine adjustment value.
Note that the maximum fine adjustment value is as follows:
Print position fine adjustment:
±
50.0 mm
Strip position fine adjustment:
- 2.0 mm to + 3.0 mm
When the sum of the values exceeds
±
50.0 mm, the fine adjustment value for print
position should be changed to
±
50.0 mm before printing.
When the sum of the values e 3.0 mm in the positive direction or falls below –
2.0 mm in the negative direction, the fine adjustment value for strip position should be
changed to + 3.0 mm or – 2.0 mm before printing.
(5)
The fine adjustment for strip position is effective only in strip issues.
(6) The fine adjustment value for strip position up to V1.0C is valid only when the fine
adjustment value for print position is not selected (fine adjustment value = 0).
(7)
The fine adjustment value for strip position is selected in the negative direction, a label is
stopped backward against the print start position. However, the print start position is
misaligned by the set value because no back feed is performed in strip issue mode.
(When the label-to-label gap is less than 5 mm) * Refer to the arrows for – 2.0 mm when
the label-to-label gap is 3 mm in P.5-15.
(8)
When the label pitch length is 20.0 mm or more but less than 24.0 mm and the effective
print length is 15.0 mm or more or the label pitch length is 24.0 mm or more, a back feed
is performed before printing.
