PRINTER SETUP

Comments When printing, the printer will first retract the

media as specified by Retract_Distance. When

the label is printed, the printer advances the media

as specified by Advance_Distance. When printing

a batch of labels, only the first label is retracted and

the last label advanced. When using the HALT

command, each label is presented using the

Advance and Retract values.

Exceeding the recommended limitations may

damage the printer.

• The RETRACT distance must be equal to

or less than the ADVANCE distance or the

media may come off the drive roller and

out of paper detection may not report

correctly.

• Thermal transfer printers are incapable

of rewinding the ribbon. Exceeding the

recommended limitations may result in

poor print quality.

• The reverse distance for Solus and Del Sol

thermal transfer printers is mechanically

limited. Exceeding the recommended

limitations may result in poor print

quality.

• All direct thermal printers have

recommended limited travel distances, as

explained in the following table.

Exceeding the recommended limitations

may result in poor print quality and

jamming of the print mechanism.
