Plain English

Shifts the entire label left or right. Unlike ^LH which sets a home position, ^LS is specifically for horizontal adjustments — useful when the label stock is slightly misaligned in the printer.

When to use

When labels are printing slightly off-centre and you need a quick horizontal fix.
