First dot location (measured from the inside edge of the media)		2.5 mm ± 1.016 mm (0.10 in. ± 0.04 in. )
Media registration tolerance**	Vertical	± 1 mm (± 0.039 in.) on non-continuous media
Media registration tolerance**	Horizontal	± 1 mm (± 0.039 in.) within a roll of media

* Maximum label lengths are affected by option selections and ﬁrmware overhead.

** Media registration and minimum label length are affected by media type and width, ribbon type, and print speed. Performance improves as these factors are optimized. Zebra recommends always qualifying any application with thorough testing.
