• Peel-off — after printing, the label moves forward and activates a Label Available Sensor. 

Printing stops until the label is manually removed from the printer.

Power Peel – liner automatically rewinds using an optional internal rewind spindle.

Value Peel – liner feeds down the front of the printer and is manually removed.

Prepeel – after each label is manually removed, the printer feeds the next label forward to 
prepeel a small portion of the label away from the liner material. The printer then 
backfeeds and prints the label. The prepeel feature assists in the proper peel operation of 
some media types.

• Rewind — the label and backing are rewound on an (optional) external rewind device. 

The next label is positioned under the printhead (no backfeed motion).

• Applicator — when used with an application device, the label move far enough forward to 

be removed by the applicator and applied to an item.

• Cutter — after printing, the media feeds forward and is automatically cut into 

predetermined lengths.

• Delayed cutter — When the printer is in the Delayed Cut PRINT MODE, it will cut the 

label when it receives the ~JK (Delayed Cut) command. To activate the ~JK command, 
the printer's PRINT MODE must be set to Delayed Cut and there must be a label waiting 
to be cut. When the printer is not in the Delayed Cut PRINT MODE, the printer will not 
cut the label when it receives the ~JK command.

The Delayed Cut feature can be activated:

•

through PRINT MODE on the printer’s control panel

•

with  a  ^MMD command

• RFID — increases throughput time when printing batches of RFID labels by eliminating 

backfeed between labels.

Comments   Be sure to select the appropriate value for the print mode being used to avoid 
unexpected results.
