Backfeed - Paxar 9800 Series Operator's Handbook Manual

B a c k f e e d
Backfeed works by advancing each printed label to the desired
dispense position. Once that label is removed, the next label to
be printed is backed up underneath the printhead. In continuous
mode, only the last label in the batch is advanced to the dispense
position. Extended backfeed is available on 9850 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 eliminates printed tags being left between the
printhead and knife. 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 does not work with non-indexed (continuous)
supply/mode. Do not use backfeed (normal or extended) with
supplies less than 0.75 inches.
We recommend using 0.5-inch gap supplies in
peel mode when backfeed is disabled.
To change the setting, from the Main Menu, select Setup, then
