Important: Use genuine media to ensure the best print quality. The special
designed paper, polyethylene and polyester media improve the performance
and the print head life.
This printer supports three classes of print media:
Adhesive Labels - individual label or continuous roll, with adhesive material on its back, laying
over a backing tape (liner).
Receipt - generally thermal sensitive paper in a roll.
Ticket & Tag - generally made of thick paper (max. 0.25 mm); with perforation between label.
The print media can be in a roll or fanfold.
Thermal sensitive media (direct thermal) must be used without ribbon.
Choose correct type of media for your application.
