Your
Normal Reference Point
H1, V1
The base reference point is always on the right edge of the print head as you face the front (label exit) of the
printer. If you are using a label that is narrower than the maximum print width, you may have to adjust the
base reference point of the Left-Hand printer to correctly position the print area. There are two methods
available 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. If
you wanted to move the print area to the left (as viewed from the front of label exit end of the printer) 2.1
inches:
Label Width = 2.0” x 25.4 mm/in x 8 dpmm = 406 dots
The new base reference point then becomes:
New Base Reference Point
= max print width – label width
= 832 – 406 = 426
Issue the Base Reference Point command after the Start command in your data stream.
<ESC>A3H0426V0001
