Configuring the Printer 2-17
Special Considerations When Using Backfeed
Make a note of the following items:
♦ Be careful when tearing supplies, because the adhesive can adhere to the printhead or platen
roller.
♦ Backfeed affects each label in the on-demand mode or the first and last label of the batch in
continuous mode.
♦ When backfeed is enabled and multiple batches are sent, the printer may not backfeed
between each batch.
♦ Backfeed should only be used when you need to advance labels to the desired dispense point.
♦ Backfeed does not interfere with the supply, print, or margin positions you have set.
♦ If the supply inter-label gap is not between .07 inch to .15 inch (14 to 30 dots), you must
adjust the dispense position and backfeed distance accordingly.
See the following graphic for a representation of the following adjustments: dispense position,
backfeed distance, supply position, print position, and margin position.
