About Tear-Off Printing
In tear-off printing, you manually tear printed labels, tickets,
wristbands, and other printed media from the front of the printer.
After you load media, you need to configure the feed adjust settings.
These settings allow for printing from the top edge of the label. You
may need to adjust the recommended values slightly depending on
your media type, supply method, and roll sizes, or because of
individual differences between printers.
Load Media for Tear-Off Printing
Depending on the type of media you use, you may also need to install
a printer accessory. If you need to print on tag media, Intermec
recommends installing the optional thick media springs before
printing. If you need to print on linerless media, you must install the
linerless media roller accessory before printing.
Note: Feed adjust values for simulator command languages like ESim,
ZSim, and DSim are preset.
