Programming Techniques 6-3

Quantity

Use either or both of the following methods to control the
quantity of labels printed:

♦ Set up a print loop by placing any C/C++ loop construct

around the code that prints the labels. The number of times
the loop executes is the number of labels printed.

♦ Adjust the batch packet’s quantity parameter before

submitting the batch. Refer to the

Packet Reference Manual

for more information.

Peel Mode/Non-Peel Mode

In peel mode, the printer separates labels from the backing
paper, which allows you to apply labels immediately. In non-
peel mode, the printer feeds the supply through the printer in a
continuous strip. In a print loop, the printer may or may not be
in peel mode. The mode you want depends on how you load
the supplies in the printer. Refer to the

Equipment Manual for

more information.

You cannot use linerless supplies in peel

mode.

Feed Mode

Feed mode determines how the printer prints the labels. There
are two feed modes:

Mode Description

Continuous

The printer prints all labels together (in one strip)

immediately, with no operator intervention.

On-Demand

The printer prints the labels one at a time. It does

not print the next label until the operator removes

the previous one.

You specify the feed mode in the batch packet with the batch
control line’s second parameter. Refer to the

Packet Reference

Manual for more information.
