Requirements for the Edge Cutoff of Continuous Label Roll Paper
To prevent the print head from sticking to the adhesive agent, be sure to use continuous label
paper that edge cutoff(“Edge cutoff” is a method of cutting and removing the edge of the label in
advance so that the label can be peeled off easily from the backing paper.) has been done.
•When performing a full-cut, for the cutoff edge (a): 3.5 mm {0.14"} or more is n
ot necessary;
however, it is recommended that cutoff edges with approximat ely 2 mm {0.79"} width be
provided for both edges so that the label can be peeled off easily from the backing paper.
•When using a label with 80 mm {3.15"} paper width, the cutoff edge (b) is not necessary;
however, it is recommended that cutoff edges with approximat ely 2 mm {0.79"} wid
th be
provided for both edges so that the label can be peeled off easily from the backing paper.
•In consideration of the cutoff edges, allow the left and right margins of 2.8 mm or more
outside the printable area.

Requirements if an original paper other than the specified original paper is used are as follows:
•Total amount of thickness of the thermal paper and backing paper: 145 μm or less (without
adhesive agent).
•Adhesive agent: Acrylic emulsion
