8.7 SEGMENTED PRINTING (cont'd)
2.
Conditions between the items
The print line for upper and lower surfaces located between the items changes depending on the label pitch;
therefore, the print line distance cannot be fixed. Calculate the range in which the print data for upper surface
may overlap with the one for lower surface.
If the previous item still remains, the target line for this item will be detected and checked. Then the maximum
offset distance will be added to calculate the range. The segmented printing will occur when the total print
ratio of base position for printing becomes 133% or more.
When printing the same item more than once, this item will be judged whether the segmented printing is
required or not according to the specified number of prints. Up to 3-reprint per data is allowed. As for
sequential number, every print will be judged for the segmented printing.
