Continuous Forms Printing - SATO E series Programming Manual

Section 2: Command Codes

Continuous Forms Printing

Command Structure None
The printer locates the end of an adhesive label by sensing the backing
between labels or through the use of an eye-mark (black rectangle on the
reverse side of the backing). It locates the end of a tag from a notch, eye-
mark, or a hole between tags. Both sensors should be disabled when
printing continuous forms by placing the Label Sensor Selection switch
(DSW3-3) in the ON position. See the specific printer Operator Manual for
instructions on configuring the printer using the DIP switch array.
If you will be using continuous labels or tags, the printer must be told to
stop feeding in another manner. The length is determined by the position
of the last printed image on the label or tag. The printer will stop feeding
when this last field is finished printing. The length may be increased with
printed spaces (20 hexadecimal) if necessary. There is no command
code to control label length.
