NOTES:
1. To ensure print quality and print head life use only TOSHIBA TEC specified media.
2. The media length specifications for use of the cutter are:

*1: When issuing a label using the swing cutter, label length should be 35.0 mm – (Gap length/2).

*2: The rotary cutter does not support the print speed of 10”/sec.

When using the Rotary Cutter, be sure to install the Ribbon Saving Module (B-9904-R/R2 series). Failure
to do this may cause a paper jam or ribbon error.

3. When marking black marks on the label rolls, they should be marked at the gaps.
4. “On the fly issue” means that the printer can feed and print without stopping between labels.

5. There are restrictions in use of the media which is narrower than 50 mm. For details, refer to TOSHIBA TEC

service representative.

6. The ratio of a label length to a gap length must be a minimum of 3 to 1 (3:1).
7. When using a label stock in cut mode, be sure to cut the gaps. Cutting labels will cause the glue to stick to the

cutter, which may affect the cutter performance and shorten the cutter life.
