ZQ220 User Guide
Keep-Out Areas
At times, incomplete printing of text and/or graphics appear
because minimum margins are not provided during label design.
The recommended minimum margins, or “keep out areas” are
shown in Figure 14.
Figure 14 • Keep Out Areas
0.59 in.

Receipt Paper with Black Bars
* Maintain a minimum “keep out area” of
1/16 in. (1.59 mm) from the two outer edges
of the paper roll and from the black bars.
Continuous Receipt Paper
(without Black Bars)
* Maintain a minimum “keep out area” of
1/16 in. (1.59 mm) from the two outer edges
of the paper roll.
Note • The length of each “continuous” receipt is determined by the data sent
to the printer.
Near Field Communication (NFC)
Devices using NFC may be active or passive. A passive device,
such as a ZQ220 printer with an NFC tag, contains information that
other devices can read but does not read any information itself. An
active device, such as a smartphone, can read the information on
the printer’s NFC tag, but the tag itself does nothing except transmit
the info to authorized devices.
