Misaligned printing

Problem

When you print your labels, you face one or more of the following problems:

  • Your label objects are misaligned.

  • Label margins are off.

  • Your printer prints an extra empty label after each batch of labels.

Solution

To resolve the issue, calibrate your printer.

We recommend that you perform calibration every time when you change a roll of labels or ribbon.

Solution 1

Loftware printer drivers have an option to calibrate your printers.

  1. On your computer, go to SettingsDevices Printers & Scanners and select your printer.

  2. Click the Manage button. Your printer settings window opens.

  3. Click the Maintenance tab, then click Calibrate,

Your printer will perform automatic calibration.

Solution 2

You can manually calibrate your printer using your printer's control panel. We recommend manual calibration when:

  • You use a third-party printer driver that has no calibration option.

  • You use pre-printed media.

  • You change media types or batches or sizes.

  • Your printer doesn't correctly auto-calibrate.

Refer to your printer user guide for the detailed procedure. Each printer family uses a different procedure.
