Logical Label Length (Host Forms Length) is the length that a user or
programmer bases his printable image on. In most cases this length
should be slightly less than the Physical Label Length. This allows the
entire image to be printed within the boundaries of the label length
indicators (gaps, notches, holes, or black marks).
When the Logical Label Length is greater than the Physical Label Length
and Clip Page = Enable (in the MEDIA CONTROL menu), the printer will
clip the bottom portion of the image that exceeds the Physical Label
length. In this case, the printable data that was not printed will be lost.
When the Logical Label Length is greater than the Physical Label Length
and Clip Page = Disable, the printer will continue to print the image onto
the next physical label and ignore the gap or mark based on the label
length value set in the QUICK SETUP or MEDIA CONTROL menu.
When the Logical Label Length is less than the Physical Label Length, the
printer will print the entire image and leave blank space the remaining
length of the physical label as it advances to the Top-of-Form of the next
label. This is true regardless of the Clip Page setting.
The allowable Label Length range is 00.1 to 99.0 inches (2.5 - 2514.6mm)
The factory defaults are listed below:
Maximum Label Length range is dependent on the Label Width value
selected, printhead installed (203 or 300 DPI). See Appendix A for
specifications.
NOTE: See “Set Label Length” on page 122.
Label Width
This option specifies the physical width of the image to be printed. The value
can be specified in inches or millimeters depending on the setting of the Units
submenu under the MEDIA CONTROL menu. The allowable range in inches
is 00.1 to the maximum print width of the printer. The allowable range in
millimeters is 2.5 to the maximum width of the printer.
