8.6 AUTOMATIC MEDIA FEED

Automatic media feed setting is enabled when continuous, tear-off or cutter (excluding no-backfeed and

excluding when dispenser unit is installed) mode is selected as an operation mode.

You can change the automatic media feed operation via the AUTO LABEL FEED setting in the service mode.

(Refer to Section 3.16.2 Overview of Machine Setting Menu)

When using automatic media feed function, refer to note in Section 8.6.3 Notes for Automatic Media Feed.

When automatic media feed setting is enabled, the feed operation starts by inserting media to the media

guide, or by closing the cover with the media inserted. After the paper sensor detects the front edge of the

media, the printer feeds the media to the print position for continuous mode, tear-off mode or cutter mode.

Printer will be ready for printing after completing the automatic media feed.

Notes:

•

When inserting the media to the media guide, make sure that the length of the media is at least 130 mm

(5.1") long for proper media detection.

•

If I-mark overlaps the paper sensor as shown below, the front edge of the media will not be detected. In

such case, disable the automatic media feed.
