Overprint

Turns overprinting ON and OFF. OFF is the default.

 

Overprint controls the order in which colors are printed

 

on the label so that black prints last.

 

With Overprint ON, black prints over (on top of) any

 

previously printed colors. This ensures that there will

 

be no gaps between colors and black print areas.

 

However, with Overprint ON, printing may be slower,

 

because the system must analyze the colors in the print

 

job and order them accordingly. You may have to swap

 

ribbons more often as well.

 

With Overprint OFF, areas of colors that will print

 

behind black are removed before black is printed.

 

However, you may see a slight gap between the color

 

areas and the black areas.

 

 

Print Label

Indicates the edge of the label.

Auto Cut Between

Lets you turn off the automatic shear between labels for

Labels

monochrome print jobs. When selected, the printer does

 

not shear between labels, letting you keep the output

 

together on the roll for use in another location.

 

Labels are sheared after 120” of printing (since that it the

 

maximum monochrome print length supported), and at

 

the end of the print job, even if Auto Cut Between

 

Labels is OFF.

 

Note: When Auto Cut Between Labels is OFF, the

 

output length of each label may shift from the true

 

defined label length because the system does not

 

continually find the front edge of the tape as the labels are

 

output. This should not be an issue for die-cut

 

monochrome jobs because the die-cut positioning routine

 

in the firmware registers the position of each label.

 

The Auto Cut Between Labels option is not used for

 

multi-pass print jobs, cut jobs, or when printing to

 

notched continuous supplies.
