NOTE: When using IGP/PGL, determine the proper narrow web width with the HDUP command used to duplicate the label. Generally, it should be the same as the distance between duplications given in the HDUP command (or some multiple of the distance between duplications).

Selection

Selects whether to use the auto label mapping feature. If disabled, the auto label mapping parameters are not used. There are two different ªstatesº of enable:

Enable: Page=Narrow Web ± The printer treats a page as each of the individual strips or labels that are printed. This affects the position used for cutting or tearing a label. With this selection, if the labels are to be cut (or torn off), the printer will cut label after each label.

Enable: Page=Wide Web ± The printer treats a page as the entire string of labels printed from the original page. This affects the position used for cutting or tearing a label. With this selection, if the labels are to be cut or torn, the printer will cut the label only after all the labels from the original page are printed.

NOTE: When in the self-strip mode, the printer must be configured to Enable: Page=Narrow Web. If the printer is programmed to cut or tear from the emulation, but not after every page or label, the printer must be configured to Enable: Page=Wide Web.

Print Mode

This option specifies the printing mode: direct thermal or thermal transfer.

Ribbon Selection

This menu contains part numbers for Printronix ribbons and one ªotherº selection. When a part number is selected, the print speed and print intensity are set to predefined defaults.
