Printer

All of the Link-OS printers load print labels and media rolls the same.
  • Label media
    uses the sensor to look through the media backing (liner) to see the beginning and end of labels on the roll
  • Marked media
    (black lines, black marks, notches, or holes) to define the print length
  • Continuous
    (receipt, etc.) with no marks to define the print length

Setting Media Sensing by Media type

  • For web/gap label 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 the last stored form’s length.
  • For black mark media
    , the printer senses the beginning of the mark and the distance to the start of the next black mark to measure the print format length.
  • For other common media and setting variations
    • Setup printing with the Label Dispenser Option after you have loaded media using this procedure.
    • For loading fan-fold media, see Printing on Fan-Fold Media. Those instructions replace steps 1-4 for loading roll media.
