A1.3.2 Detection Area of the Transmissive Sensor
The transmissive sensor is movable from the center to the left edge of the media.
The transmissive sensor detects gaps between labels, as illustrated below.
N
OTES:
1. To ensure print quality and print head life use only TOSHIBA TEC approved media.
2. For the backing paper Glassine paper 7K white or equivalent should be used. Also, the light transmission
rate of the backing paper should be 22% or above.
3. When perforating the media, it should be done from the print side to the reverse side.
4. Ink used for pre-printing the media should not contain hard substances such as carbonic calcium (CaCO3)
and Kaolin (Al2O3, 2SiO2, 2H2O).
5. The reflectance of the black mark should be 10% or less when the wavelength is 950nm.
6. As this printer does not have a label holder, this figure is a guide for the system integrator using this printer.
When the outer roll diameter of the labels being used is 200 mm or less, a hanging type supply holder
similar to the type used in TEC desktop thermal printer’s will work correctly. When the outer roll diameter
exceeds 200 mm, the label holder should have mechanisms, such as bearings, a damper, etc. to reduce the
tension on the label. In any case, prior to actual operation, please be sure to test all practical conditions
including the labels, system, etc. and confirm there is no problem.
