This command makes it possible to set the media feed for either tear-off (straight-
through) or peel-off (self-strip) operation.
jp
1
p Length of media feed after printing in dots (0-160).
1
Recommended values:
Tear-off (straight-through) operation: 136 (default)
Peel-off (self-strip) operation: 110
When using peel-off operation, the labels should remain slightly stuck to the
liner (backing paper) so they do not fall off by their own weight, still can be
manually removed with ease.
In the case of tear-off operation, the media should be fed so the pre-perforation
between tags or the gap between labels become aligned with the tear bar. The j
command allows the media feed to be adjusted accordingly, that is after the printer
has been printed and the rear edge becomes aligned with the printhead's dot line, an
extra amount of media feed is performed.
Caution!
Do not use extremely small or large values for the j command, since they may
cause the printer to feed or pull back the media continuously.
The extra media feed set by the j command can be enabled or disabled by means
of JF and JB "Top of Form Backup" commands respectively. By default "Top
of Form Backup" is enabled.
