Label Length

In most applications, the user-selected Label Length will match the physical label length. Physical label length is the actual label length of the media installed. Following is a list of different media types:

•Die-cut labels – measurable length of the removable label (leading edge to trailing edge). This does not include the liner material or gap.

•Tag Stock with notches or holes – measurable length from the trailing edge of one notch or hole to the trailing edge of the next notch or hole.

•Tag Stock with black marks on the underside – measurable length from the leading edge of one black mark to the leading edge of the next black mark.

•Continuous media (no label length indicators) – measurable length should be within + 1-2% of the Label Length value entered.
