Selects the top-of-form (TOF) sensing
method for the media.
The printer recognizes the TOF by sensing
gaps in the media.
No TOF sensing. The user must use the
LABEL LENGTH setting to determine TOF.
The printer recognizes the TOF by sensing
reflective (black) marks on the underside of
media.
For use with continuous media. Label length
is used to determine the TOF when 'Sensor
Type-Continuous' is selected.
Sets the maximum length between TOF
marks (gap or black stripe). If this limit is
exceeded, a top of form fault is declared.
Adjusts the printer to sense your media.
