PRINT MODE
Selecting Print Mode
Print mode settings tell the printer the method of label delivery that you wish to use. Be
sure to select a print mode that your hardware configuration supports because some of the
selections displayed are for optional printer features.
• Press either oval to display choices.
Default: Tear-Off
Selections: Tear-Off, Peel-Off, Cutter, Applicator, Rewind
Note • Only Tear-Off mode is supported.
MEDIA TYPE
Setting Media Type
This parameter tells the printer the type of media that you are using. 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).
• Press either oval to display choices.
Default: Non-Continuous
Selections: Continuous, Non-Continuous
SENSOR TYPE
Setting the 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).
• Press either oval to display other choices.
Default: Web
Selections: Web, mark
Note • Only Web is supported.
PRINT METHOD
Selecting Print Method
The print method parameter tells the printer the method of printing that you wish to use:
direct thermal (no ribbon) or thermal transfer (using thermal transfer media and ribbon).
• Press either oval to display choices.
Default: Thermal transfer
Selections: Thermal transfer, direct thermal
Note • Selecting direct thermal when using thermal transfer media and ribbon creates a
printer error condition, but printing continues.
