Supplies and Driver Settings

Once the sensor "sees" the paper it will automatically

feed it into position and will begin to print.

c. The printer will print a purge pattern where swaths of

each color are printed to clean the jets of the cartridge.

A series of diagonal lines are printed in each color of

both cartridges. By examining this pattern you can tell

if the cartridge is firing all jets or if the cartridge is

dirty and requires further cleaning. While the blocks

of color may not print solidly, it is important that the

diagonal lines be continuous. Repeat this process until

all diagonal lines print without breaks.

Change Cartridge(s)

Click the Change Cartridge(s) button to move the cartridges

into position for easy access for replacement. For more

information on this see Section 2-C. When installing

cartridges you will be prompted to align your cartridges

as described earlier in this section.

Sensor Type

Sensor Type refers to the method the printer will use to center

the print image on your label material. If you are using

standard die-cut labels or Through-hole label material where a

hole is punched through each label for alignment purposes use

the Through-hole/Die-Cut setting. Use Reflective for black

stripe sensing label material where a pre-printed line indicates

the break between labels. If you have continuous stock with

no die-cut or reflective mark, set the sensor type to

Continuous.

Rewinder Mode

This defaults to No. When set t no, the printer will align your

labels with the tear off bar for easy removal. This mode can be

set to Yes when using the printer with an automatic rewinder.
