Chapter 4—Media Load
Peel-Off (Self-strip)
The EasyCoder PF4i Compact Industrial can print on labels, tickets, tags, and continuous stock in various forms. This section describes the case when self-adhesive labels are separated from the liner immediately after printing. The liner is then wound up on an integral liner takeup hub. This is also known as “Self-strip” operation.
Peel-off operation cannot be performed when Quick-Load guides are fitted.
Use the <Feed> key (see figure #13) when loading the same type of media. When switching to a new type of media, or if the printer does not feed out the media properly, simultaneously press the <Shift> and <Feed> keys to perform a “testfeeed.”
Peel-off can only be used for:
• Self-adhesive labels with liner
An optional label-taken sensor can hold the printing of the next label in a batch until the present label has been removed, see Chapter 9, “Options.”
Note: Peel-off operation sets high demands on the media in regard of label stiffness, release characteristics of the adhesive and liner, resistance against electrostatic charging etc., so the labels will be dispensed properly. Consult your media supplier or test the media to ascertain that it is suitable for your applica- tion.
