Loading Media for Tear-Off Printing

PM4i Mid-Range Printer User's Manual
The PM4i can print on labels, tickets, tags, and continuous stock in
various forms. The method you use to load media depends on how
you want the printer to operate. The PM4i can print in these modes:
• Tear-off (straight-through)
• Peel-off (self-strip)
Cut-off
•
• External supply
• RFID
If you are using Fingerprint, use the F key to load the same type of
media. If you change the media type, or if the printer does not feed the
media properly, simultaneously press the S and F keys to perform
a "testfeed."
If you are using IPL, save the label with the sensitivity number
attached to the media roll. You need this number to set the media
sensitivity.
In tear-off, or straight-through, printing mode, you manually tear off
the media against the printer's tear bar. In tear-off mode, use these
types of media:
• Non-adhesive continuous stock
Self-adhesive continuous stock with liner
•
• Self-adhesive labels with liner
• Tickets with gaps (gap stock), with or without perforations
• Tickets with black marks (mark stock), with or without
perforations
You can also install an optional label taken sensor so that the next
copy in the batch is not printed until the current copy is removed. For
more information, see "Accessories for the Printer" on page
