Setting Media Sensing by Media type

For web/gap media, the printer senses the differences between the label and the liner to determine the print format length.

For continuous roll media, the printer only senses the media’s characteristics. The print format’s length is set by programming (driver or software) or by using length of the last stored form.

For black mark media, the printer uses its sensor to measure the print format length, from the first black mark to the start of the next black mark .

If using a label dispenser, load the media and proceed with Using the Label Dispenser Option.

If using fanfold media, see Printing on Fanfold Media.
