Printing

You may have to make several

adjustments to one or more of

these values. After each adjust-

ment you can click the Test but-

ton to print a small test pattern

on the label. This will help you

find the proper alignment value.

E. CREATING A

FULL BLEED

PRINT

1. If you are having trouble making the image cover the entire

label, first make sure the image is printing at least as big as

the label size you have selected. To accomplish this using

Nice Label, make the image a few millimeters larger than

the label by dragging the image over the edge of the label

on all sides. The bounding box around the image will turn

red when it is over the edge of the label. Try printing again

to see if it covers the entire label. If not, move on to step

two.

2. Adjust these settings in the printer driver preferences to

create a .05" (1.2mm) overbleed.
Page Size. Increase the page size width in the driver

preferences by .1 inches. Increase the height by .1 inches.

If you are using Nice Label, simply change the size under

the File Menu - Label Setup. Increase the size of the image

to fit the new larger page size. If you are using other

graphics programs you will need to change the page size

in the application and in the printer driver preferences.

Left Margin Offset

. You must decrease the left margin off-

set to center the over bleed on the label. If you overbleed

by .05" you will need to decrease the Left Margin Offset by

12. This will center the page size increase so there is a .05

inch over bleed on both left and right sides.
