Chapter 4 MEDIA SETUP Menu
• Cut . When the optional media cutter is installed, it automatically cuts
media after each label is printed or after a specified number of labels
have been printed when a software cut command has been issued. It cuts
continuous roll paper, labels, or tag stock.
NOTE: The Cut option is not allowed if the cutter is not installed. The error
message “OPTION NOT INSTALLED” displays.
• Rewind . In rewind mode the printer unwinds the media from the media
supply spindle or fanfold label stack, prints the labels, and rewinds the
printed media and its carrier web onto the optional rewind spindle.
NOTE: The Batch Label Rewinder option is not allowed if the Rewinder is not
installed. The error message “OPTION NOT INSTALLED” displays.
• Continuous . Printer prints on the media until the print buffer is empty and
then stops at the next top of form.
Adv Continuous
Allows selection of special media modes when Continuous Media Handling
mode (see page 69) is selected.
• Standard (factory default). Labels are printed and sent out the front. The
cross perforation following the last printed label is not aligned at the tear
bar. No auto feeding of a blank label should exist between print jobs, but
you may need to press the Feed key to move approximately .80 inches of
the last printed label from under the printhead. If performed, this feed
causes a blank label at the beginning of the next print job.
• Tear-Off . Same as Standard, but the cross perforation following the last
printed label is aligned at the tear bar. No blank label is needed to remove
the last printed label. No blank label should exist between print jobs. A no
print zone, .80 inches long, exists from the leading edge of each printed
label. This option supports label lengths 2.50 inches or longer.
• Tear Strip Full . Same as Standard, but the cross perforation following
the last printed label is automatically aligned at the tear bar once the print
buffer is empty for a period of Label Wait Time. (Media does not get
aligned at tear bar until Label Wait Time expires.) When printable data is
again detected, a blank label is automatically fed, resulting in one blank
label between each print job. This option supports label lengths 2.50
inches or longer. Shorter label lengths cause two or more blank labels to
be automatically fed at the beginning of each print job.
• Cut Strip . Same as Standard, but the cross perforation following the last
printed label is automatically aligned to the cut position once the print
buffer is empty for a period of Label Wait Time. (Media does not get
aligned at the cut position until Label Wait Time expires.) When printable
data is again detected, a blank label is automatically fed, resulting in one
blank label between each print job. This option supports label lengths
2.50 inches or longer. Shorter label lengths cause two or more blank
labels to be automatically fed at the beginning of each print job.
