How it looks Description
Roll media is wound on a core that can be 0.5 to 1.5
in. (12.7 to 38.1 mm) in diameter. Labels have
adhesive backing that sticks them to a liner, and
they are separated by gaps, holes, notches, or black
marks. Tags are separated by perforations.
Individual labels
are separated by one or more of the following
methods:
• Web media separates labels by gaps, holes, or
notches.
• Black mark media uses pre-printed black marks on
the back side of the media to indicate label
separations.
• Perforated media has perforations that allow the
labels or tags to be separated from each other
easily. The media may also have black marks or
other separations between labels or tags.
Fan-Fold media is folded in a zigzag pattern. Fanfold
media can have the same label separations as
non-continuous roll media.
The separations would fall on or near the folds.
Roll media is wound on a core that can be 0.5 to 1.5
in. (12.7 to 38.1 mm) in diameter. Continuous roll
media does not have gaps, holes, notches, or black
marks to indicate label separations. This allows the
image to be printed anywhere on the label. A cutter
can be used to cut apart individual labels. With
continuous media, use the transmissive (gap)
sensor so the printer can detect when the media
runs out.
