LCB LABEL CONTROL BYTE

The label control number defines the type of label stock that is used.

Continuous Stock: If set to a value of 2, the printer will not activate the gap detector circuit. After all fields are printed, the printer will advance the extra distance in the SPG header element.

Normal Stock (leading edge): If defaulted (value of 0), the printer will detect the trailing edge of the label (the beginning of the gap).

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

Blow Hole Stock (Slot-Cut): Use the default value (0) and set software dip switch #4 (^D24) for blow hole stock (see section 5.3).
