Chapter 3 — Troubleshooting and Maintaining the Printer
28 PF8d/PF8t Printers User’s Guide
Adjusting the Label Taken Sensor
The built-in label taken sensor can be enabled to pause printing
until a printed label is removed from the printer’s output slot.
The printer will not continue printing until the label taken
sensor no longer detects a label.
When you are using the ESim protocol, note the following:
• The label taken sensor must be enabled using the manual
switch next to the sensor before it can be enabled or disabled
using ESim commands.
• When switching between peel-off, tear-off, and cut-off
operation, you must adjust the media feed in ESim by using a
j command. For more information, see the ESim for the PC4
and PF8 Printer Programmer’s Reference Manual (P/N 937-
011-xxx)
If you are using InterDriver you can select one of the following
modes of operation without issuing commands:
•Tear-off
• Peel-off with label taken sensor enabled
• Peel-off with label taken sensor disabled
The InterDriver files are on the PrinterCompanion CD or
available for download from the Intermec web site at http://
www.intermec.com.
Adjusting the Label Gap Sensor
The PF8 printers are fitted with a label gap sensor that detects the
slots between tickets and tags or gaps between labels as media is
fed past the sensor during printing. The label gap sensor
determines the length or tag or labels and controls the media and
ribbon feed accordingly.
