About Smart Calibration
Smart Calibration detects media type (gap, black mark, or continuous),
detects printing method (ribbon or no-ribbon), and calibrates media
length. This feature reduces the amount of media needed to set up the
printer. Smart Calibration is available as an option for these media
settings:
•
Power Up Action (default setting)
•
Head Down Action (default setting)
•
Hold Feed Button Action
About Media
The printers can print on labels, tickets, tags, and continuous stock. The
procedure you use to load media depends on how you are operating the
printer and the options you have installed.
About Linerless Media
If you are printing on linerless media, follow these guidelines for best
results:
•
You must install the linerless roller accessory before printing. For
more information on this accessory, contact your local Intermec
representative.
•
When removing printed labels on linerless media, tear the label up
towards the top of the printer to prevent media jams.
•
Do not use linerless media with the cutter accessory.
About Tear-Off Printing
For tear-off printing, you manually tear printed labels, tickets, and other
printed media from the front of the printer. You can use these types of
media for tear-off printing:
•
Non-adhesive continuous stock
•
Self-adhesive continuous stock with liner
•
Self-adhesive labels with liner
•
Tickets with gaps, with or without perforations
•
Tickets with black marks, with or without perforations
