6
Enter the total width (TW) of the media construction, including the narrow portions
of exposed liner near the edges of the media.
7
Enter the printable width (also called maximum printable width, or MPW). Do not
include the narrow portions of exposed liner near the edges of the media.
8
Enter the label length (also called maximum printable length, or MPL).
•
If you are using gap or reflective mark media, the MPL is printed on the
packaging for your label rolls.
•
If you are using continuous media (tag stock), you will determine length based
on the height dimension in your label file. You can view this dimension using
your label design application software.
9
Select the type of material the label will be printed on.
10
Select a sensor type.
•
Gap
- Choose this option if you are using gap media.
•
Reflective
- Choose this option if you are using reflective mark media.
•
None
- Choose this option if you are using tag stock media without gap or
reflective marks (continuous media).
When printing on continuous media, there will be an unprinted space of
approximately 0.125” (3.175 mm) between labels.
If you selected Gap or Reflective, enter the length of the gap or reflective mark
(also called GML).
Caution:
Continuous media is supported for tag stock only. If continuous label
media is used, the cutter will cut through label adhesive. In this situation, adhesive
build-up on the blade will result.
11
Select the shape of the label.
12
If you are printing a full-bleed label, you can eliminate white space along the edges
of the label by selecting vertical and horizontal bleed values. If a value is greater
than zero, the printed label length/width will be slightly increased to bleed to the
edge of the label.
Each vertical bleed degree increases the label length by .1 mm in the respective
vertical direction. Each horizontal bleed degree increases the label width by .1 mm
in the respective horizontal direction.
When using this option, design your label so the bleed area extends beyond the
edges of the label “canvas” in your label design software.
13
If necessary, use the offset options to adjust the location of a printed image relative
to the registration marks on the media.
•
Vertical Offset
- Negative values move the image down on the label (out away
from the printer). Positive values move the image up on the label (in toward the
printer).
