NOTE
: Feed amount setting
・
+ (Plus)
Increases the forward feed amount.
・
- (Minus) Decreases the forward feed amount.
NOTES
:
1. If the pitch of the media used for the previous issue was less than 20mm, the auto feed to the cut/strip
position after printing will not be activated regardless of the parameter setting.
* In the case labels with the different pitch (less than 20mm and 20mm or longer) are alternately placed in
one label roll, the forward feed is not activated for the labels with the pitch of less than 20mm. Therefore it
stays at the print stop position without being fed backward. Before the next label with the pitch of 20mm or
larger is printed, however, it is automatically fed backward along with the previously printed label. This may
cause the print data to be printed on the previous label.
2. The media will stay at the forwarded position even if the power is turned off/on, the printer is reset, or the
print head is opened/closed.
5.5.4 FW/BK ACT.
・
MODE1: Normal:
The printer waits for a next issue after media is forwarded 16.5-mm.
・
MODE2: SHORT CUT LAB: When the thermal transfer method and cut issue are selected, the printer
feeds 6-mm media backward, then waits for next issue with media forwarded
3-mm.
・
MODE3: for RFID: The printer waits for a next issued after media is forwarded 34.0-mm (to prevent RFID
media jam.)
NOTES
:
1. When MODE2 is selected and the printer starts printing (feed) from the forwarded position, it feeds the
media for 3 mm from this position and temporarily stops. The feed speed for this 3-mm distance to the
home position is the max. speed that can be accelerated from the previous speed (See the following).
After the temporary stop, the printer prints or feeds the media at the specified speed.
203-dpi model: 5 ips
305-dpi model: 5 ips
* Except for the multi-step acceleration area for short-pitch labels, the print speed will be accelerated up to
the specified speed when the media has not been forwarded.
2. When MODE3 is selected and the RBN SAVE parameter is set to “LABEL” or “TAG”, the printer will raise
the print head while the auto feed to the cut/strip position is performed.
If labels with the pitch of 57.2mm or less are used, they may peel off from the backing paper. Therefore, it
is required to select “LABEL” or “TAG” for the RBN SAVE parameter. The speed of the auto feed is fixed
to 3 ips.
5.5.5 RIBBON SAVE.
・
OFF
The ribbon saving module is not used.
・
TAG POSITION
The ribbon saving module is used.(Head lever position: “TAG”)
・
LABEL POSITION The ribbon saving module is used.(Head lever position: “LABEL”)
NOTES
:
1. If this parameter is set to “TAG POSITION” or “LABEL POSITION” without the ribbon saving module
installed, the ribbon slacks and a print failure occurs. Caution required when setting this parameter.
2. For B-EX6T1, only Position1 is available to use since there is no distinguish between Tag position and
Label position.
