QL Series User Guide
Loading the Media
You can operate QL Series printers in one of two different
modes: Tear-Off or Peel-Off. Tear-Off mode allows you to tear
off each label (or a strip of labels) after it is printed. In Peel-Off
mode, the backing material is peeled away from the label as it
is printed. After you remove this label, the next one is printed.
