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 paper will be fed to the manual tear
position after printing. The printer will feed back paper to the start print
position when the next print job is sent.
If data is transmitted continuously from the computer, the tear-off function will
be suppressed to increase throughput.
6.5.1 Turning Tear ON/OFF
Tear can be turned to ON or OFF from the control panel. Default is OFF.
Indications on the control panel are as follows:
Tear-off invalid Tear-off valid
LCD indication "Tear OFF" "Tear ON"
6.5.2 Tear-off when printing
If set, the tear-off will start if no data is transmitted from the computer for 0.5
second after printing. If data is transmitted continuously from the computer,
the tear-off function will be suppressed.
Tear-off is only performed for the final label of each batch processing.
(The tear-off is not performed until the specified number of print sheets is
completed.)
