LTS& ON/OFF

Field of Application

Statement for enabling or disabling the label taken sensor.

Syntax LTS& ON|OFF

Default: LTS& OFF

Remarks

The label taken sensor (LTS) is a photoelectric device that can be ﬁ tted

in the vicinity of the printer’s label outfeed slot and detects if a printed

label or ticket has been removed or not. (Usually, a self-adhesive label

is not fed out completely, but will remain partly stuck to the liner so

it will not fall off.)

Using the LTS ON statement, you can order the printer to stop the execution

at next PRINTFEED statement until the LTS no longer detects any label.

Then the PRINTFEED is executed. This is most useful when printing

batches of labels or tickets. As soon as a label is taken, the next one is printed

and awaits being taken care of.

The same result can also be obtained in a more cumbersome way by a

program based on the PRSTAT(2) function.

LTS& OFF revokes LTS& ON.
