Media Type
The Media Type parameters control how the label stop sensor (LSS)
and the media feed work. There are fi ve media type options:
• Label (w gaps) is used for adhesive labels mounted on liner.
• Ticket (w mark) is used for labels, tickets, or continuous stock
provided with black marks at the back.
• Ticket (w gaps) is used for tickets and tags with detection slits.
• Fix length strip is used for continuous stock where the length of the
print window decides the length of media to be fed out.
• Var length strip is used for continuous stock and adds 115 dots
of media feed after the last printable dot (may even be a blank
space character or a “white dot” in an image or character cell) to
allow the media to be properly torn off.
It is important to select the correct media type, so the printer can
indicate possible errors. Two error conditions may occur:
• Error 1005 “Out of paper” indicates that the last ordered copy
could not be printed because of an empty media stock.
• Error 1031 “Next label not found” indicates that the last ordered
label or ticket was successfully printed, but no more labels/tickets
can be printed because of an empty media stock.
