Set Media Type

This parameter tells the printer the type of media that you are using (see Types of Media on page 31 for more information). Selecting continuous media requires that you include a label length instruction in your label format (^LLxxxx if you are using ZPL or ZPL II).

When non-continuous media is selected, the printer feeds media to calculate label length (the distance between two recognized registration points of the inter-label gap, webbing, or alignment notch or hole).

Default Value: NON-CONTINUOUS

Selections: NON-CONTINUOUS, CONTINUOUS

To change the value shown:

1.Press PLUS (+) or MINUS (-)to scroll through the options.

Set Sensor Type

This parameter tells the printer whether you are using media with a web (gap/space between labels, notch, or hole) to indicate the separations between labels or if you are using media with a black mark printed on the back. If your media does not have black marks for registration on the back, leave your printer at the default (WEB).

Default Value: WEB

Selections: WEB, MARK

To change the value shown:

1.Press PLUS (+) or MINUS (-)to toggle between the options.

Select Print Method

The print method parameter tells the printer the method of printing that you want to use: direct thermal (no ribbon) or thermal transfer (using thermal transfer media and ribbon).

Default Value: THERMAL-TRANS.

Selections: THERMAL-TRANS., DIRECT THERMAL

To change the value shown:
