410 Operators Manual 53
5.3.8 LABEL PRESENCE SENSOR CONTROL
The label presence sensor that is standard on the 410 printer gives the printer the ability to print
at the operators pace. The following modes define its operation.
^A ^D Command
XX 96 Load Advance Delay: ^A specifies how many milliseconds to delay repositioning
of the label in tag/tear and peel-and-dispense modes. Example usage:
^A1000^D96 would delay label advance by one second.
97 Tag/Tear Operation: A method of dispensing a label where the label is
advanced so the perforation between labels is on the tear bar. This allows heavy
tag stock and regular label stock to be torn off easier. The distance of
advancement may also be defined by the user, if used in conjunction with the
^D95 command. There are three modes of operation:
0 Disable tag/tear operation.
1 Advance after every label: Causes the paper to be advanced to the perforation
after every label is printed. As soon as the label is taken, the paper is backed up
to the beginning of the next label. This mode forces the printer and computer to
operate at the speed of the operator.
2 Advance after copies count: Causes the paper to be advanced to the perforation
after the number of labels specified by the copy count (^D73) or label count
(^D75) commands have been printed. As soon as the labels are taken, the paper
is backed up to the beginning of the next label.
3 Advance when idle: This causes the paper to be advanced to the perforation
whenever the printer does not have a label request pending. When another label
request is made, the paper backs up and the next label is printed.
It is possible to have more than one mode in effect at a time. For example, Modes
2 & 3 which would cause the label stock to be advanced after a copies count and
then remain advanced until another label request is made.
