3. In the case the printer cannot detect a gap/black mark while feeding the media, an error occurs on
the following condition. Regarding an error during a feed, refer to the External Equipment Interface
Specification for the B-EX series, Section 7 Error Processing.

5.5.2 FEED KEY

・ FEED Feeds one label.
・ PRINT Prints data in the image buffer on one label.

5.5.3 MOVE TO TEAROFF

・ OFF Disables the auto feed to the cut/strip position after printing.
・ ON Enables the auto feed to the cut/strip position after printing.
Media loading function is disabled. (Same as a feed by press the [FEED] key)
When the [FEED] key is pressed after the printer is turned on, reset by a batch reset
command, or the print head is closed, the printer feeds the media to detect the next
gap/black mark. When the gap/black mark is detected, the printer feeds the media for
the distance from the sensor to the print start position.
When the [FEED] key is pressed after the printer is reset by a batch reset command or
the print head is closed, the printer feeds the media to detect the next gap/black mark.
When the gap/black mark is detected, the printer feeds the media, which is positioned
nearest from the print head, to the print start position. At this time, the feed length is
calculated based on the stored media pitch.
After performing above-mentioned ECO, the printer feeds the media backward for the
label pitch length while raising the print head if the following conditions are satisfied.
Optional ribbon saving module (solenoid) is installed.
RIBBON SAVE parameter is set to TAG or LABEL.
Media pitch falls between 20mm and 100mm.
The previous issue mode was Batch. (The issue mode is not reset by a power off or a
printer reset.)
Even if the hardware requirement is not satisfied (i.e. the optional ribbon saving
module is not installed), the printer feeds the media backward when the other
requirements are satisfied. However, this operation is not guaranteed as it is outside of
the specification.
When the relation between the stored media pitch (A) and the media pitch
detected by the sensor (B) does not satisfy the following formula, it will be an
error:
(A) × 50%  (B)  (A) × 150%
When a gap/black mark is not detected while feeding 1500-mm media, it will be
an error.
