[Page Clipping Mode]

Enable or disable the page clipping mode.

Page clipping mode is a function that cuts off the print data at the label separation position so that the print data will not be printed on the next label.

By enabling this setting, data outside the print area based on the print reference position will not be printed, and the applying operation will continue. (No error occurs)

The print reference position moves according to the values set in the [Pitch] in the [Printing] > [Advanced] > [Adjustments] menu.

The figure below shows the state with no print position adjustment (±0) when the Gap sensor is used.

Enabled

If print data (1) goes past the print reference position (b), print data (1) stops printing at the print reference position (b). The next printing is done from the print reference position (b).

Disabled

If print data (1) goes past the print reference position (b), then the next printing is done at the print reference position (c).

Printing is done at the print reference position (b), so it is excluded from being a reference position because it is a position where printing and dispensing-stop cannot be done.

• Do not design label layouts so that important information, such as barcodes, 2D codes, or prices, adjacent to where labels are separated. We recommend using this function to check the results of printing as much as possible, such as barcode reading and image verification. • Do not create designs that position items that are not printed on the label in print-positions that are not on the label. They will be printed on the label by printers other than this printer or if the label is large. Also, in some cases, on subsequent models with different functions, commands may no longer be usable. • This function basically operates by using a media sensor to detect where labels are separated. If labels are skewed (fed too little, fed too much, backfed too little) as they feed, then unwanted operations may occur, such as printing cutting off to leave blank spaces on the label, or printing being output on the top of the next label. When using this function, keep appropriate tension for supplying labels and for rewinding liners.
