slot at the rear of the printer and route it the same way as you
would a media roll.

Loading Media for Peel-Off (Self-Strip) Printing
Use the procedure in this section when you are using self-adhesive
labels that are separated from the liner immediately after printing.
Peel-off printing is also called self-strip printing. With peel-off
printing, you use the label taken sensor to sense when a label has been
removed. After a label is removed, the sensor lets the printer know it is
okay to print another label. Peel-off printing only supports self-
adhesive labels with a liner.
