P R I N T E R S E T U P
VARIABLE POSITION
Function Moves the first printed dot row on the label up or down
with respect to its last position.
Explicit Form
Implicit Form
VARIABLE POSITION distance
V POSITION distance
Parameters
distance
Distance between the original starting
location and the new location, in
thousandths of an inch. Positive numbers
move the first dot row down; negative
numbers move the first dot row up.
A ? returns the current setting status.
NOTE: The first dot row must always be at least 3/16" from
the top edge of the label when using black bar indexing.
Trying to print too near to the top edge by using the
VARIABLE POSITION command causes label skipping.
Comments When using this command, send it to the printer with
VARIABLE WRITE
in a non-printing label format. After
sending the file to the printer, press the FEED button
once to set the new index position.
Do not use this command in stored label formats.
The position set with this command only applies to the
current indexing method (black bar or gap).
This command has the same effect as the VARIABLE
TOF command.
