MEDIA TYPE
Setting Media Type
This parameter tells the printer the type of media that you are using. Selecting
continuous media requires that you include a label length instruction in your
label format (
^LLxxxx
if you are using ZPL or ZPL II).
When non-continuous media is selected, the printer feeds media to calculate
label length (the distance between two recognized registration points of the
inter-label gap, webbing, or alignment notch or hole).

SENSOR TYPE
Setting the Sensor Type
This parameter tells the printer whether you are using media with a web
(gap/space between labels, notch, or hole) to indicate the separations between
labels or if you are using media with a black mark printed on the back. If your
media does not have black marks for registration on the back, leave your
printer at the default (web).

Note •
Selecting direct thermal when using thermal transfer media and ribbon
creates a printer error condition, but printing continues.
