2.3.4 Black Mark Layout and Operating Condition
Black marks are selected at two places on the back and one place on the front
(PCS value is 0.9 or more).
* BM position is an option of factory shipment.
Though printing is available on the printing side having a black mark on the
back, print density may become thin depending on the type of paper; therefore,
user’s notice such as printing on the place without black mark is necessary.
Distance between black mark and black mark sensor is approx. 32.5 mm. If
black mark is detected within this distance, next black mark is detected.
Cut position when black mark is detected by the GS+S command (black mark
detection command) is about 45 mm with the top of black mark used as a
reference.
Amount of automatic paper feed at the detection of black mark can be set by
the ESC Y n1 n2 command.
Basically cut command can be executed in any condition. If minimum distance
for issuing a ticket (80 mm) is not satisfied, paper feed as much as the shorted
amount is added by the printer.
* The user is requested to prepare the printing layout in consideration of the
above regulations.
