Receipt roll stock media is supplied as a continuous roll. Label, tag,
and fanfold media use repeat indicators for non-continuous media.
Gap, notch, and black marks are used as repeat indicators:
• Gap: Label and fanfold media
• Notch: Tag media
Black mark: Label, tag, and fanfold media
•
Here are a few things to keep in mind when ordering media for the
PW50 printer:
• Black marks can only be sensed on the back side of the media.
• You can use higher caliper media in the printer, but print quality
will be reduced.
• Receipt roll stock media has an end of roll indicator. The end of roll
indicator is a red marking (on last 3 feet of roll) on the thermally
sensitive side of the paper.
