After the last label of the series has been printed the labels can be torn free from the supply roll in a similar manner as described in the tear off mode above.
3.Cut Mode - In the cut mode, as each label is printed it is fed forward to the cutter mechanism where the swing cutter mechanism will precisely cut the label off from the supply roll. The feed mechanism will then backfeed the label or card stock until it is properly positioned under the print head to print the next label in series. The issue command sent to the printer from the Host can inform the printer to cut each label or tag after each has been printed or to perform the cut only after a certain number of labels or tags have been printed and issued.
