Label Length

In most applications, the user-selected Label Length will match the
physical label length. Physical label length is the actual label length
of the media installed. Following is a list of different media types:

Die-cut labels: measurable length of the removable label
(leading edge to trailing edge). This does not include the
liner material or gap.

Tag stock with notches or holes: measurable length from
the trailing edge of one notch or hole to the trailing edge of
the next notch or hole.

Tag stock with black marks on the underside: measurable
length from the leading edge of one black mark to the
leading edge of the next black mark.

Continuous media (no label length indicators): measurable
length should be within + 1-2% of the Label Length value
entered.
