^MM
Print Mode
Description: The ^MM command determines the action the printer takes after a
label or group of labels has been printed. There are four different modes of
operation:
1. Tear-Off After printing, the label is advanced so that the web is over the tear
bar. Label, with backing attached, can then be torn off manually.
2. Rewind The label and backing are rewound on an (optional) external rewind
device. The next label is positioned under the printhead (no backfeed motion).
3. Peel-Off After printing, the label is moved forward and activates a Label
Available Sensor. Printing stops until the label is manually removed from the
printer.
Power peel backing material is automatically rewound using an
optional internal rewind spindle.
Value peel Backing is fed down the front of the printer and manually
removed.
Pre-peel After each label is manually removed, this causes the printer
to feed the next label forward to pre-peel a small portion of the label
material away from the backing material prior to backfeeding and
printing the label. The pre-peel feature assists in the proper peel
operation of some media types.
4. Cutter After printing, the media feeds forward and is automatically cut into
predetermined lengths.
