Epson dfx-8000 User Manual

Labels

When using labels, always choose the type mounted on a continuous
backing sheet with sprocket holes for use with a tractor. Labels
should be used in t h e  front tractor only. You load labels the same
way that you load continuous paper. See the section on loading
paper onto the front tractor earlier in this chapter.

Never 

use the TEAR OFF, FRONT/REAR, or

reverse-feeding (bottom) 

MICRO FEED button when labels are

through the printer because they can easily come off the

Although you must never feed labels backward through the printer,
you can still use the DFX-8000’s  automatic paper handling features
if you follow these precautions:

Instead of’ using 

the TEAR OFF button to remove printed labels,

take the printer off line and press the 

FORM FEED or LINE FEED

button until the last printed label is at the point where you can
tear it off easily.

Before using the 

FRONT/REAR button to 

 tractors ,or change

paper, remove the entire supply of labels. To remove labels,
always tear off the fresh supply at a perforation below  the
tractor and then 

press the FORM FEED or 

 FEED: button to

eject the remaining labels.

When you adjust the top of form or printing position, use only
the forward-feeding (top) 

MICRO FEED button.
