MEDIA CONTROL Submenus

Units
This item selects either millimeters or inches as the unit of measure.
The options are In Inches (factory default) and In Millimeters.
Set Label Length
This feature selects whether the Sensed Distance value derived from an Auto
or Manual Calibrate will be used to set the Label Length value in the MEDIA
CONTROL menu (and the QUICK SETUP menu).
• Manual (factory default). The Sensed Distance value derived from an
Auto or Manual Calibrate will not override or change the Label Length
value.
• Automatic . When an Auto or Manual Calibrate is performed, the Sensed
Distance value derived from either calibrate will override and change the
Label Length value. If no Auto or Manual Calibrate is performed, the
current Label Length value will be used.
NOTE: When Set Label Length = Automatic and Gap/Mark Sensor = Gap,
Advanced Gap, or Advanced Notch, the printer will subtract the
Gap Length value (in the CALIBRATE CTRL menu) from the Sensed
Distance value obtained when the Auto or Manual Calibrate was
performed.
Although the “Use Label Length” in the CALIBRATE CTRL menu
keeps its value (enable/disable) at all times, it is ignored (disabled)
when “Set Label Length” is set to “Automatic”.
Peel Present
This feature allows you to select which part of a label gets presented to the
peel bar. The options include:
• Next TOF (factory default). Media is moved to next TOF after image
printing before presenting media to the peel-off position. This option is for
standard labels where the gap/mark length is less than the printhead to
peel bar distance (about 1/2 inch).
• End Of Form . Media is moved to the end of form after image printing
before presenting media to the peel-off position. This option is for labels
that have wide gaps that result in labels falling off the peel bar. This
setting works with non-mark media where the end of form is not the same
as the next TOF. This setting is useful for die cut labels where the
physical bottom of the label can be detected by the media sensor.
• End Of Image . Image prints and media moves to peel-off position. This
option is for labels that have wide gap/marks that result in labels falling off
the peel bar. This selection is intended for cases where presenting the
next TOF or end of form still results in labels falling off the peel bar. This
menu selection works best if the length of the image printed matches the
physical length of the label.
