To use extended backfeed, you can use the optional keypad or your System
Administrator can define the Backfeed Control Packet. Use extended
backfeed on 9835 or 9840 printers with a knife installed. Extended backfeed
feeds a tag far enough out to be cut and backfeeds the next tag to the
printhead line. Extended backfeed works with the selected cut modes.
Refer to the optional Packet Reference Manual to learn how to define the
Backfeed Control Packet.
Extended backfeed eliminates printed tags being left
between the printhead and knife.
Extended backfeed does not work with non-indexed
(continuous) supply/mode.
Do not use backfeed (normal or extended) with supplies
less than 0.75 inches.
