• Press the right or left oval to display the choices.

 

Default: Calibration

 

Selections: Feed, Calibration, Length, Short Cal, and No Motion

• Feed—feeds the labels to the first registration point.

• Calibration—determines the length of the label and adjusts the sensor settings.

• Length—In continuous mode, feeds the last stored label length. In non-continuous mode, calibrates based on the maximum label length setting (see Setting Maximum Length on page 46).

• Short Cal—calibrates label length using the current sensor settings.

• No Motion—the media does not move. You must press FEED to cause the printer to resynch to the start of the next label.

HEAD CLOSE Head Close

This parameter sets the action of the labels when the printhead is closed.

•Press the right or left oval to display the choices. Default: Calibration

Selections: Feed, Calibration, Length, Short Cal, and No Motion

•Feed—feeds the labels to the first registration point.

•Calibration—determines the length of the label and adjusts the sensor settings.

•Length—In continuous mode, feeds the last stored label length. In non-continuous mode, calibrates based on the maximum label length setting (see Setting Maximum Length on page 46).

•Short Cal—calibrates label length using the current sensor settings.

•No Motion—the media does not move. You must press FEED to cause the printer to resynch to the start of the next label.

BACKFEED Backfeed Sequence

This parameter establishes when and how much label backfeed occurs after a label is removed or cut in Peel-Off, Cutter, and Applicator modes. It has no effect in Rewind or Tear-Off modes. This parameter setting can be superseded by the ~JS instruction when received as part of a label format (see the ZPL II Programming Guide).

Note • The difference between the value entered and 100% establishes how much backfeed occurs before the next label prints. For example, a value of 40 means that 40% of the backfeed takes place after the label is removed or cut. The remaining 60% takes place before the next label prints. A value of BEFORE means that all backfeed takes place before the next label prints.

•Press the right or left oval to display other choices. Default: DEFAULT (90%)

Selections: DEFAULT, AFTER, OFF, BEFORE, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%
