The printers can print on labels, tickets, tags, and continuous stock.
The procedure you use to load media depends on how you are
operating the printer and the options you have installed.
If you are printing on linerless media, follow these guidelines for best
results:
•
You must install the linerless roller accessory before printing. For
more information on this accessory, contact your local Intermec
representative.
•
When removing printed labels on linerless media, tear the label up
towards the top of the printer to prevent media jams.
•
Do not use linerless media with the cutter accessory.
If you are printing on tag media, follow these guidelines for best
results:
•
Install the optional thick media springs before printing. For more
information on this accessory, contact your local Intermec
representative.
•
After you install the thick media springs, adjust the Media
Sensitivity and Darkness settings for best print quality.
•
To extend the life of the printhead, Intermec recommends that you
install the original springs when printing on other types of media.
The first time you load media in the printer, or when you use different
sizes of media, you must adjust the media holders. After you adjust the
media holders, you do not need to adjust them again for a new roll of
the same size media.
Note: The illustrations show the PC43d printer. Adjusting the media
holders is done the same way for all printers.
