not, tapping [FEED] feeds media to align with the print start position.)

Waste Prevention function is not guaranteed.
• Disable [Auto Measure]. If you enable [Auto Measure], media feeds every time auto measure is
executed, regardless of the settings for the Label Waste Prevention function.

discharge outlet, detects the leading edge of the media and aligns the media to the print start position.
If the print start position is misaligned, try adjusting the position and sensitivity of the label top sensor.
