ering up the printer with media loaded will
cause the printer to enter the AutoSense
mode. See AutoSense on page 33 for impor-

Always run the AutoSense procedure when
loading new batch or type of media. Media from
the same manufacturing lot and having
identical dimensions do not need to have the
AutoSense procedure run every time new
media is loaded.
The Form Feed length is set by printer
programming (Q) command in EPL2
programming language or the AutoSense
feature, an automatic label and gap length
sensing operation. See AutoSense, page 33.
Continuous media with no label gaps,
containing black marks or notch holes, require
programming to set the form length and feed
distance.
