Zebra Technologies 105SE Printer User Manual


 
92 Zebra S-Series User’s Guide
Diagnostics — Information about what printer functions are not working.
This information is used for troubleshooting.
Direct thermal printing — Printing in which direct thermal media is
used. No ribbon is used; instead, the media is coated with a substance
which reacts to heat to produce an image.
Fanfold media — Media that comes folded in a rectangular stack rather
than on a roll.
Font — A complete set of alphanumeric characters in one style of type
(e.g., Times, Helvetica).
Ips “inches-per-second” — The speed at which the label or tag is printed.
Zebra offers printers that can print from 2 ips to 12 ips.
Label — An adhesive-backed piece of paper, plastic, or other material on
which information is printed.
Label available sensor — For printers equipped with the peel-off option,
this sensor detects a printed label waiting to be taken or “picked” by the
operator. While it detects this label, the printer does not print additional
labels. Once the label has been taken, printing resumes. Also called
“take-label sensor”.
Label backing (label liner) — The material on which labels are affixed
during manufacture and is discarded or recycled by the end-users. Label
backing (or liner) has a non-stick surface which allows the label to be
easily removed by the end-user and placed in the desired location.
Mark sensing — See “Reflective media sensor” on page 93.
Media — Material onto which data is printed by the printer. Types of
media include tagstock, continuous, fanfold, roll, etc.
Media hanger — The hanger that supports media rolls and provides
consistent media feed to the printhead.
Non-volatile memory — Electronic memory that retains data even when
power is removed.
