Appendix Roll Tag (Hole, Oblong Hole, Cutout) Paper feed direction Holes, oblong holes, and cutouts for paper detection Paper Reference line Reference line Reference line Length from label edge to hole Length from label edge to cutout Shape of edges Shape of edges • If the paper is thicker than 0.2 mm {0.008 in.}, the paper may rub against the print head due to curling caused by the roll core. In this case, increase the diameter of the core and check if printing can be done normally.
• When paper cannot be used because its holes, oblong holes, or cutouts for paper detection are not detected, it may be possible to use the paper by adjusting the sensitivity of the sensor or the threshold for label detection.

However, the allowable dimensions of cutouts do not vary depending on the distance from the paper's reference line.
