Intermec EasyCoder E4 LinerLess – Installation & Operation Ed. 1
The label length is defined as the distance between gaps, detection
slots, or black marks. Measure the actual distance from the rear end
of a gap or slot to the start of next gap or slot. In case of black
marks, measure the distance between the forward edges of two ad-
jacent marks and subtract the value expressed in dots by 16.
By using the TESTFEED command, a blank label is fed out while
the label length is automatically measured and stored in the print-
er's flash memory, and the sensitivity of the label stop sensor is
adjusted according to the characteristics of the presently loaded
media.
It is recommended to send a TESTFEED command every time
you change to a new label/ticket length or media type!
When using labels/tickets with a length exceeding ≈ 24 cm (9.5"),
the TESTFEED command does not work, but the label length must
be set manually using the following setup command.
SETUP "SERVICE,TESTFEED,LENGTH,<length in dots> " ↵
Setup string, example:
SETUP "SERVICE,TESTFEED,LENGTH,750 " ↵
