Adjusting the Print Darkness

Use the darkness adjust control in combination with the PrintSet software
configuration tool to fine-tune the darkness of print on your labels. The
fine adjustments compensate for variations in the media (“lot to lot”), the
printhead, or the printer. Set the darkness adjust control after you enter
the media sensitivity number.

2
