Remarks Gaps and slots:
e EasyCoder PD4 has a label gap sensor designed to detect the
top of each form. It does this by looking either
• through the semi-transparent liner in the gap between labels,
• or through a hole in the media.
e position of the sensor is adjustable across the media path.
Refer to the EasyCoder PD4, User’s Guide for specifications of the
size and location of detection slots and instructions for moving
the sensor.
When entering Autosensing Mode by holding the Pause key at
startup, the printer automatically determines the Q value while
feeding a couple of labels. e current Q value is printed on the
test label and the label produced by a U command.
Continuous stock:
In case of continuous stock, parameter p
1
decides the amount
of media feed performed after the actual print image has been
printed. Continuous stock is selected by setting parameter p
2
= 0.
