Disable (the default). Select when using media with no label length
indicators (no black marks, gaps, notches, or holes), or when you want
the printer to ignore all existing label length indicators on the installed
media.
NOTE: When you select Disable, the length of each label is based on the
•
Mark. Select when using media that has horizontal black marks located

die-cut labels or when using tag stock with notches or holes as label
length indicators on white background media. The
top-of-form position is the leading edge of the die cut label (trailing edge
of the gap, notch, or hole).
•
Advanced Gap. Select when using media that has liner gaps between
die cut labels with black background. The top-of-form position is the
leading edge of the die cut label (trailing edge of the gap, notch, or hole).
•
Advanced Notch. Select when using media with notches or holes that
interrupt a black vertical line on the underside of the media. The top-of-
form position is the leading edge of the die cut label (trailing edge of the
gap, notch, or hole).
