Notice!
The printout occurs without taking the label gaps into consideration. This is why endless media are most
suitable for this purpose.
Insert printable medium (labels, endless paper) which extends across the entire printing width.
If the printout is to occur using thermal transfer printing, insert transfer ribbon with the maximum width.
