Explanation (1) Number of labels to be issued
c If increment/decrement is not specified, the designated number of pieces with
the same drawing data will be issued.
d If increment/decrement is specified, the designated number of pieces will be
issued while incrementing/decrementing the piece of the designated drawing
area.
* The increment/decrement designation is valid until the Image Buffer Clear
Command ([ESC] C) is transmitted.
(2) Cut interval
The cut interval is valid only when the cutter has been installed and the issue
mode is “C”. If an error occurs during an issue after the cut interval is
designated, and then printing is restarted, the printer ejects the printed paper, then
resumes printing on the paper where the error occurred.
If no subsequent command is received from the PC for 1 second after issuing the
last label, the printer automatically performs an approximately 13.7-mm forward
feed. However, if the label pitch length is 20 mm or less, the edge of the label is
caught on the head, when the label is fed back to the home position. Therefore,
even if the automatic forward feed standby is specified, a forward feed is not
performed.
When receiving the Issue Command during the automatic forward feed standby,
the printer starts an issue after a reverse feed to the original position.
If any command is sent and processed after the Issue Command is sent, the
automatic forward feed is not performed. Therefore, a command should not be
sent after the Issue Command is sent. The power should not be turned off then
on, or the printer should not be placed in a pause/reset state before the automatic
forward feed, since the automatic forward feed is not performed when the paper is
fed by turning the power off then on, or by pressing the [FEED] key of the printer
in the pause/reset state.
If the paper is fed by pressing the [FEED] key of the printer during the forward
feed standby, the printer feeds one label, cuts, performs the automatic forward
feed then stops.
When writing data onto the RFID tag failed and the void pattern is printed, the
paper including the void one is cut at the specified cut interval.
(3) Type of sensor
c No sensor: Printing takes place according to the parameter designated by the
Label Size Set Command.
d Reflective sensor:
Printing takes place according to the parameter designated by the Label Size
Set Command. However, the black mark provided on the back side of the
tag paper is automatically sensed by the reflective sensor and the paper
position is finely adjusted for every piece.
e Transmissive sensor (when using normal labels):
Printing takes place according to the parameter designated by the Label Size
Set Command. However, the label-to-label gap is automatically sensed by
the transmissive sensor and the paper position is finely adjusted for every
piece.
f Transmissive sensor (when using preprinted labels):
Printing takes place according to the parameter designated by the Label Size
Set Command. However, the label-to-label gap is automatically sensed by
the transmissive sensor and the paper position is finely adjusted for every
piece according to the value set by the threshold setting operation (key
operation).
