1.6 Printable Area
1) Paper roll
For 80mm paper width model
The printable area of a paper with width of 79.5 ± 0.5 mm {3.13 ± 0.02"} is 72.2 ± 0.2 mm {2.84 ±
0.008"} (512 dots) and the space on the right and left sides are approximately
3.7 ±2 mm {0.15 ± 0.079"}.

The printable area of a paper with width of 57.5 ± 0.5 mm (2.26" ± 0.02") is 50.8 ± 0.2 mm (2.00" ±
0.008") (360 dots) and the space on the left side is approximately 3.7mm (0.15”) and on the right

Figure 1.6.3 Shifting of the Print Position
NOTE: The print position within the printable area of the thermal elements for dots 257 to 512 is
shifted approximately 0.07 mm {0.003"} in the paper feed direction from the position for dots 1
to 256. Be sure not to print a ladder bar code across both printable areas, as this can cause
variations in printing which are difficult to read. However, when the ladder bar code is printed
with level 2 of print density, the difference is only approximately 0.04 0.05 mm
{0.00150.0019"}.
