Media type	How it looks	Description
Non-continuous roll media		Labels have adhesive backing that sticks them to a liner. Tags (or tickets) are separated by perforations. Individual labels or tags are tracked and position controlled by one or more of the following methods: Web media separates labels by gaps, holes, or notches Black mark media uses pre-printed black marks on the back side of the media to indicate label separations Perforated media has perforations that allow the labels or tags to be separated from each other easily in addition to position control marks, notches or label gaps
Non-continuous fanfold media		Fanfold media is folded in a zigzag pattern. Fanfold media can have the same label separations as non-continuous roll media. The separations would fall on or near the folds. This type of media uses black marks or notches to track media format positioning.
Continuous roll media		Continuous roll media does not have gaps or typically holes, notches, or black marks either to indicate label separations. This allows the image to be printed anywhere on the label. A cutter can be used to cut apart individual labels. With continuous media, use the transmissive (gap) sensor so the printer can detect when the media runs out.
