9.10.1 Printing RFID Tag Errors
If the recorded data on a tag is incomplete due to writing on a defective tag, the product will print an RFID
tag error to the defective media. This function is to prevent the distribution of defective media with a tag
error.
When an RFID tag error occurs, the product prints a slash and the error message, such as “WRITE TAG
ERROR” or “TAG NOT FOUND”. When the error is related to the writing error, the product continue to
print the first sixteen bytes of write data.
With the label size that is smaller than width 45 mm, pitch 35 mm, the write data is not printed. And with
the label size that is smaller than width 40 mm, pitch 30 mm, only slash is printed. (When the tag offset is
set to other than the default, add the value of tag offset to the pitch length.)
The diagram below shows the message printed on the position based on the media size specified by the
normal print command <A1>.
