Chapter 4 — Media Load
Peel-Off (Self-strip)
The EasyCoder PX6i can print on labels, tickets, tags, and continuous
stock in various forms.
This section describes the case when self-adhesive labels are separated
from the liner immediately after printing, which requires an optional
internal liner takeup unit, see Chapter 9, “Options.” This is also known
as “Self-strip” operation.
Use the <Feed> key (see fi gure #17) when loading the same type of media
as before. When switching to a new type of media, or if the printer does
not feed out the media properly, simultaneously press the <Shift> and
<Feed> keys to perform a “ testfeed.”
Peel-off can only be used for:
• Self-adhesive labels with liner
An optional label-taken sensor can hold the printing of the next label
in a batch until the present label has been removed, see Chapter 9,
“Options.”
Note: Peel-off operation sets high demands on the media in
regard of label stiffness, release characteristics of the adhesive
and liner, resistance against electrostatic charging etc., so the
labels will be dispensed properly. Consult your media supplier
or test the media to ascertain that it is suitable for your applica-
tion.
