Programming Techniques 6-3

Printing Single Labels

To print single labels, send a format and a batch (with a
quantity of 1) to the printer. SAMPLE1.C in the Samples sub-
directory illustrates printing single labels.

Printing Multiple Labels

An application can multiple labels in a strip or print loop. When
setting up a method to print multiple labels, you must specify

quantity

peel mode/on-peel mode

feed mode.

Quantity

Use either or both of the following methods to control the
quantity of labels printed:

Set up a print loop by placing any C/C++ loop construct
around the code that prints the labels. The number of times
the loop executes is the number of labels printed.

Adjust the batch packet’s quantity parameter before
submitting the batch. Refer to the MPCLII Packet Reference
Manual for more information.

Peel Mode/Non-Peel Mode

In peel mode, the printer separates labels from the backing
paper, which allows you to apply labels immediately. In non-
peel mode, the printer feeds the supply through the printer in a
continuous strip. In a print loop, the printer may or may not be
in peel mode. The mode you want depends on how you load
the supplies in the printer. Refer to the Equipment Manual for
more information.

You cannot use linerless supplies in peel

mode.
