Label Sensor Selection (DSW3-3): Enables or disables the Label Pitch sensor. If
the sensor is enabled, it will detect the edge of the label and position it automatically.
If it is disabled, the positioning must be under software control using Line Feed
commands for continuous media printing.
Back-Feed Selection (DSW3-4): When Back-Feed is enabled, the printer will
position the label for dispensing/cutting and retract it before printing the next label.
See page 2-40 for information on setting the amount of offset.
External Signal Interface
The EXT connector on the printer rear panel is intended for use with the external
printer accessories such as label rewinders or applicators. The 14-pin Centronics
type connector provides a choice of four different output signals along with various
error conditions.
EXT Print Start Signal Selection (DSW3-5): Allows an external device to
initiate a label print. See page 5-12 for a description of signal requirements.
Note: This switch must be in the On position if an external device is used to control the
printer via the EXT connector.
