Setting the Tear Off Position
The Tear Off Position adjusts the position of the media over the peel bar after printing. The label

Press the NEXT key to display MEDIA TYPE.
Selecting the Media Type
The Media Type parameter specifies the kind of media being used. “Continuous” media requires that
a label length instruction (^LLxxxx) be included in your ZPL or ZPL II label format.
With “non-continuous,” the printer feeds media to calculate label length (the distance between two
detections of the inter-label webbing, or alignment notch, or hole). “Non-Continuous” is the
recommended mode for an applicator.
