PT-E500 too much whitespace #2

Closed johndoc closed 1 year ago

johndoc commented 1 year ago

I have roughly 20-25mm of whitespace before my text starts. I'm a novice at best when it comes to coding, but I've dug through the src/ptouch-print.c and src/libptouch.c and can't seem to find where the change needs to happen.

I do see:

//offset=64- (gdImageSY(im)/2);

This is commented out though, correct?

This is a FAQ. It's due to the physical design of these printers and cannot be avoided. I've added a point under the 'Gist' section explaining this. Hope this helps.
