Table 3

LCB

LABEL CONTROL BYTE
This parameter selects between the various gap detection methods.

Normal Stock (leading edge): If set to a value of 0, the printer will detect the leading
edge of the label or “blow hole” (the start of the next label).

Continuous Stock: If set to a value of 2, the printer will not search for a gap or other
sense mark. The printer will print all fields that contain data and advance the paper the
amount specified in the SPG parameter. Blank or empty fields will not be printed. For
example, Imagine a receipt format that contains 100 lines. If data is provided for the
first 50 lines, the printer will not advance the “extra” blank 50 lines. The printer will stop
immediately after printing the last pixel and then advance the amount specified in the
SPG parameter.

If the AGD is set to 0, the printer will always feed the same amount of media regardless
of the data. In this case, the amount of label feed is determined by adding the SPG
value to the LSY.

Blow Hole Stock (Slot-Cut): If set to a value of 0, the printer will detect the leading edge
of a blow hole (see software dip switch #4 (^D24) for blow hole stock).

Black Line Stock (transmissive sensor): If set to a value of 1, the printer will detect the
leading edge of a black line.

Black Line Stock (optional reflective sensor): If set to a value of 3, the printer will detect
the leading edge of a black line.
