Power Rewind/Power Peel Option

The Z Series™ printer supports a rewind option, with the capability of rewinding an entire roll of printed labels (Rewind mode) or backing material only (Peel mode). This option is available as both a factory installed feature and a field-installable kit.

Label Movement in Rewind Mode

In the Rewind mode, labels are printed and fed forward in a continuous sequence. As printing continues, the media is wound onto the Take-Up Spindle.

Label Movement in Peel Mode

In the Peel mode, when a label is completely printed, the printer feeds the label forward to the take-label position. The label hangs from the printer and is held in place by that portion of the label still attached to the backing material. When the operator removes the label, the printer moves the next label forward to “pre-peel” a portion of the label from the backing. The label then backfeeds to be printed. As printing contin- ues, the backing material is wound onto the Take-Up Spindle.

Refer to Appendix A for information on configuring the printer for either the Power Rewind or Power Peel mode of operation.
