Label Peel-Off - Printronix T5000 User Manual

Label Peel-Off

You can set up the printer to automatically peel die-cut labels off their liner
(backing) and dispense them one at a time while rewinding the liner.
You can install the media guide to prevent long labels from accidentally
adhering to the front door assembly, but it is normally not needed when using
labels less than two inches long (see "Installing The Media Guide" on page
50).
Configuring the Printer Menu
1. Set Media Handling to "Peel-Off" under the MEDIA CONTROL Main
Menu. (See Chapter 3, "Configuring The Printer" for more information.)
2. Press the PAUSE key until "OFFLINE" displays.
Loading Media
1. If you want to install the media guide to print long labels, do so now by
completing the steps listed in "Installing The Media Guide" on page 50.
2. Open the media cover and refer to the Label Peel-Off illustration on the
Ribbon and Media Loading instruction label on the inside of the cover.
