Chapter A — Specifications
Here are a few things to keep in mind when ordering media for the
PB22/PB32 printer:
• Black marks can only be sensed on the back side of the media.
• You can use higher caliper media in the printer, but print quality
will be reduced.
• Receipt roll stock media has an end of roll indicator. The end of
roll indicator is a red marking (on last 3 feet of roll) on the
thermally sensitive side of the paper.
