INDEX

Once the sensor "sees" the paper it will automatically feed it into position and will begin to print.

c.The printer will print a purge pattern where swaths of each color are printed to clean the jets of the cartridge. A series of diagonal lines are printed in each color of both cartridges. By examining this pattern you can tell if the cartridge is firing all jets or if the cartridge is dirty and requires further cleaning. While the blocks of color may not print solidly, it is important that the diagonal lines be continuous. Repeat this process until all diagonal lines print without breaks.

Change Cartridge(s)

Click the Change Cartridge(s) button to move the cartridges into position for easy access for replacement. For more information on this see Section 2-C. When installing cartridges you will be prompted to align your cartridges as described earlier in this section.

Sensor Type

Sensor Type refers to the method the printer will use to center the print image on your label material. If you are using standard die-cut labels or Through-hole label material where a hole is punched through each label for alignment purposes use the Through-hole/Die-Cutsetting. Use Reflective for black stripe sensing label material where a pre-printed line indicates the break between labels. If you have continuous stock with no die-cut or reflective mark, set the sensor type to Continuous.

Rewinder Mode

This defaults to No. When set t no, the printer will align your labels with the tear off bar for easy removal. This mode can be set to Yes when using the printer with an automatic rewinder.
