6.5 Tear-Off Function

The tear-off function eliminates the waste of labels when tearing manually. It allows the paper to automatically advance to the tear position after printing.

When this function is turned on, paper will be fed to the manual tear position after printing. The printer will feed back paper to the start print position when the next print job is sent.

If data is transmitted continuously from the computer, the tear-off function will be suppressed to increase throughput.

6.5.1Turning Tear ON/OFF

Tear can be turned to ON or OFF from the control panel. Default is OFF.

Indications on the control panel are as follows:

 

LCD

 

 

 

Tear-off invalid

 

Tear-off valid

 

 

 

"Tear OFF"

 

"Tear ON"

 

 

 

6.5.2Tear-off when printing

If set, the tear-off feature will start if no data is transmitted for 0.5 second after printing. If data is transmitted continuously from the computer, the tear-off function will be suppressed.

Tear-off is only performed for the final label of each batch processing.

(The tear-off is not performed until the specified number of print sheets is completed.)
