Chapter 1 Product Overview Cutting Unfinished Labels Since this printer uses a four-color line printing system, if printing stops in the middle for some reason, it may result in unfinished labels that have only been printed by some of the four color heads. If printing is interrupted by a no paper error and there are unfinished labels, they are automatically fed forward or backward* by half of the set paper length and cut out. This function can be set on the printer's operation panel or in PrinterSetting. * There is a limit to the forward/backward feeding length.
Depending on the set print speed and paper length, it may not be possible to cut the paper at the position half the set paper length. • If there are multiple unfinished labels, only the first label is cut out. • This function does not work when an error other than a no paper error occurs, such as a paper jam error. The following shows how the printer handles an unfinished label generated at a print speed of 300 mm/s {11.81 in/s} and a paper length of 80 mm {3.15 in.}.
