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