When label paper is used, the printer automatically sets the la-
bel at the starting position for printing just after turning the power
switch on. When label paper is selected, the printer automati-
cally detects label paper position and performs paper feeding.
(Paper feed amount varies by the type of label paper.)
(2) Paper-feed switch
[Function]
If this switch is pressed, paper is fed one line based on the cur-
rently specified line spacing.
If this switch is held for 200 ms or
more, paper is fed as long as the switch is pressed, and stops
when the switch is released. If line spacing is set to 0, paper is
fed while the switch is pressed.
l
The defined macro is executed when the switch is pressed in
the macro executing command standby state.
l
Paper is fed by operating this switch, except during printing, in
an error state, and in the macro executing command standby
state.

When label is selected, paper feeding is performed in label units
regardless of the predetermined paper feed amount.

of label ejection command (GS
