Check the parameter X adjust to see if there isn't a value inserted by the previous user. Normally the printing is always central

SOURCE: Okidata - label printing alignment

You might try setting up Word for a 'custom' label since it offers that option.
I've done some strange labels by directing Word via that feature.

SOURCE: PRINT WILL NOT STAY ALIGNED ON EACH LABEL-RUNS ONTO NEXT LABEL

Check the tension on the Ribbon Take-up Spindle there is a nut on it that sometimes can loosen or tighten its self and will throw off the lables. Its a nut that has a of couple Hex nuts on the corner, screw the nut to about the 3rd thread from the top of the bolt facing you then tighten the hex nuts on the corners of the nut. Then try printing the labels make sure the media guide also is set to the lable size that is installed.

You should recalibrate your sensor without or use reflective sensor instead of transmissive.

Zebra LP 2844 printing off center
If your Zebra LP 2844 printer is experiencing shifting or off-center printing, there are a few possible causes and troubleshooting steps you can try:
  1. Check print settings: Ensure that the print settings on your computer or label design software are correctly configured for the label size and layout you are using. Make sure the label dimensions and print margins are set accurately.
  2. Calibrate the printer: Perform a calibration on the printer to ensure it is properly aligned. To calibrate the Zebra LP 2844, follow these steps: a. Turn off the printer. b. Hold down the feed button. c. While holding the feed button, turn on the printer. d. Release the feed button once the green status light begins to flash. e. The printer will feed labels and automatically adjust the label alignment. f. Once the printer stops feeding labels, the calibration is complete.
  3. Adjust label position sensors: The LP 2844 has label position sensors that detect the start of each label. If these sensors are misaligned or dirty, it can cause shifting or off-center printing. Clean the sensors using a lint-free cloth and ensure they are properly aligned.
  4. Check label alignment: Ensure that the labels are loaded correctly and aligned properly in the printer. Make sure they are inserted straight and centered in the label guides.
  5. Inspect the print head: Check the print head for any debris, adhesive residue, or damage. Clean the print head with isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab if necessary. A dirty or damaged print head can affect print quality and alignment.
  6. Update or reinstall printer drivers: Ensure that you have the latest printer drivers installed on your computer. If the drivers are outdated or corrupted, it can cause printing issues. Visit the Zebra website and download the appropriate drivers for your LP 2844 model.
  7. Test with different labels or ribbons: If the problem persists, try using different labels or ribbons. Sometimes, the issue could be related to the specific media being used.

What are the settings for a TEC b-572 to make it print correctly, I am using win7 drivers
The printer knows nothing at all about labels, and isn't looking for any gap. I think you specified the wrong settings in whatever software you're printing the labels from - something in "Page layout" or "Format" or possibly "Printer Settings". You need to tell the computer software exactly what labels you're using, or exactly what your label specifications are.

My sato cl408e is printing but 1/4 of the print on the inside of the label not readable. very dull and missing print. The other 3/4 of the print is perfect. Could this be a dirty print head or the...
It could be a print ehad problem, or an out of alignment condition between the platen and the head.
YOu can use a test mode to print a factory test print, that will put the print across the label. Settings and a barcode for alignment will be pirnted.
If you are using less than full width stock, only print 5 or less labels as the head will try to print across the full width, and if no label present, may harm printhead.

there are adjustments on the outside(right) of the platen support bearing that you can loosen the screw, and cam adjustment, to level the head across the platen.

Labelmaker program will not print image in right place
This can drive you nuts! :)

It sounds like you need to adjust the label orientation with the label maker software first. THEN, use regular paper to test your adjustments. Take the print out from a regular piece of paper and overlay it on the label paper. Hold it up to a light and see how the labels align. Re-adjust if you need to. You won't waste your label paper that way.

Also check the settings on the printer as well, making sure you have selected the correct paper or tray (if equipped).
