Media Load
Introduction
e EasyCoder PC4 can print on heat-sensitive direct thermal paper, and
in case of the thermal transfer model also on non heat-sensitive receiving
face materials, in the form of self-adhesive labels, non-adhesive tags, or
continuous stock. In case of non heat-sensitive face materials, a suitable
thermal transfer ribbon must be used.
e media stock can be accommodated inside the printer in the form of
a roll, or be placed behind the printer and inserted through a slot in the
cover (for example fan-folded tickets or tags).
ree types of operation are available, Tear-Off (Straight-through), Peel-
Off (Self-Strip), and Cut-Off:
Tear-Off
Tear-off (Straight-through) means that the media is fed straight out
from the front of the printer and can be torn-off manually by pulling
it upwards against the edge on the top cover. Tear-off mode can, for
example, be used for tearing off tags at the perforation, or tearing off the
liner (backing paper) between labels.
Peel-Off
Peel-off (Self-strip) means that self-adhesive labels are automatically
separated from the liner (backing paper) after printing. It cannot be used
in connection with a paper cutter. e labels are fed straight out from the
printer, whereas the liner is fed out separately from a slot further down
on the printer’s front, from where it can be lead to for example a waste
basket. Be careful when loading self-adhesive labels. If labels are not
flat on the liner, the exposed edges can stick to your printer and cause
problems.
Cut-Off
Cut-off requires an optional paper cutter fitted in place of a peel-off
device and means that the liner of self-adhesive labels is automatically
cut between labels or non-adhesive contionuous strip is cut into tickets
and tags. e cutter is not designed to cut through any adhesive, which
would stick to the cutting shears and prevent the cutter from operating.
