6.5 Tear-Off Function The tear-off function eliminates the waste of labels when tearing manually. It allows the paper to automatically advance to the tear position after printing. When this function is turned on, the printer checks for print request for 0.5 second after printing and if no print request is made, the printer feeds paper to the manual tear position. The printer will feed back paper to the print start position when the next print job is sent.
・ Paper is fed to the tear position Paper position sensor Print head Platen Peeling (manual tearing) Tear-off will start if no data is sent for 0.5 second after printing Paper is fed to the position where manual tearing is possible ・ When manual tearing is needed, tear the label at this time. ・ Performs next label printing. When next print data is transmitted from the computer, the printer feeds back paper to the previous print completed position and resumes printing.
6.5.4 Tear-off and type of data When the tear-off is valid, the printer monitors the print data for 0.5 second during or after printing. If print data is transmitted within 0.5 second during or after printing, the printer will start next printing without tear-off. (When data is received during printing, the time of monitoring 0.5 second is not inserted.
・ Initialization parameter values Initialization values for print or tear position are described below by each operating mode. In Native ON Unit: Normal print Print position (Onnnn, form offset) 55.9 (2.2) Tear position (fnnn, feed offset) 55.9 (2.2) Auto- cutter Peeling Tear-off ¾ ¾ ¾ 86.3 (3.40) 68.5 (2.7) 73.5 (2.9) mm (inch) Minimum value 12.7 (0.5) 12.7 (0.5) If values lower than the minimum value are set, the initialization value will be set.
