8.3 HEAD CHECK MOTION
There are three ways to perform head check through [ADVANCED MODE]. Refer to Section 3, Operation and
Configuration, for more details.
8.3.1 Last Item
When “LAST ITEM” is selected in [HEAD CHECK MODE], head check will be performed after the last item is
printed and the printer is paused. In the cutter mode - a label will be cut after printing and fed backward - head
check will be performed while feeding a label backward.
If there is no more print data for lower surface, the item printed at the last second will be the last item.
For example, Send two items *1 (3 labels in each item) in continuous mode.
Head check will be performed for the third label in the second item.
*1 Print method: One side indicates the print data for upper surface. Double side indicates the print data is
ready for both upper and lower surfaces as a set.
Note:
• When selecting “LAST ITEM” in [HEAD CHECK MODE] and printing a large number of labels continu-
ously, the printer will not detect print head burnout as an error. However, this will be detected as an error in
head check after completing the print job.
8.3.2 All Check
When “ALL CHECK” is selected in [HEAD CHECK MODE], head check will be performed after completing the
print job.
When the subsequent print data is available, backfeed motion will occur before starting the next print job.
For example, Send two items *1 (3 labels in each item) in continuous mode.
Head check will be performed per label and the printer will feed the label backward before starting the next
print job. In this case, head check will be performed six times.
*1 Print method: One side indicates the print data for upper surface. Double side indicates the print data is
ready for both upper and lower surfaces as a set.
Notes:
• When “PRINT-CUT” is selected in [PRINTER TYPE], head check will be performed per label. If not cutting
the labels, the printer will feed each label backward.
• In continuous or tear-off mode, head check will be performed per label. Therefore, the printer will feed
each label backward after completing the print job.
8.3.3 Check Page
When “CHECK PAGE” is selected in [HEAD CHECK MODE], label quantity for head check can be set. When
the specified number of labels is printed, head check will performed. When the subsequent print data is
available, backfeed motion will occur before starting the next print job.
For example, The specified number of labels is 2. Send two items *1 (3 labels in each item) in continuous
mode.
