Setting the Supply Type
The printer can print on aperture, black mark, die cut, or continuous supplies as shown.
Set the printer’s supply type to match the loaded supplies.
Supply/print position adjustments and the format determine where the printing begins on
the supply.
Select For
E Aperture
(Tag Edge Aperture)
Aperture holes (or openings) on the left edge of the
supply. The supply is sensed using the holes. You
may need to make supply or print position
adjustments on your format.
See description for Center Tag Edge.
E Die Cut (Edge Die Cut) or
C Die Cut (Center Die Cut)
Die cut supplies have a rounded edge. The supply
is sensed using the gap between the labels. If
using semi die cut supplies (tags with rounded
corners on the edges), select Edge Die Cut.
E Black Mark (Edge Black Mark)
or
C Black Mark (Center Black Mark)
Black marks on the back of the supply for sensing.
The supply is sensed using the black mark.
Select E Black Mark for black marks on the left
edge.
Select C Black Mark for black marks in the center.
Select C Black Mark for black marks across the
entire width of supply.
Continuous Continuous supply does not have any index marks
for sensing or perforations. This is also known as
non-indexed supply.
C Aperture (Center Aperture) Aperture holes (or openings) in the center of the
supply. They do not contain a black mark. The
supply is sensed using the holes.

Classification: Avery Dennison – Public Setting Supply Options 2-3
Center Tag Edge Center tag edge supply has aperture holes (or
openings) centered on the left edge of the supply.
The supply is sensed using the holes.
Using this setting, the printer automatically
calibrates to print at the leading edge. No
additional supply/print position adjustments are
necessary.
Setting the Ribbon
There are different ribbon requirements for the types of supplies:
Select To
No (for thermal direct supply) Not use a ribbon for printing.
Yes (for thermal transfer supply) Require a ribbon for printing.
Hi Energy
(High Energy Supply -
TUFF-MARK®)
Require an elevated heat setting for resin ribbon
applications.
Using a High Energy Ribbon
When you select high energy ribbon for the printer setting, you are setting the printer to a
higher printing temperature. Select this setting only after you have loaded a high energy
ribbon and supplies or it may damage the printhead.
High Energy Ribbon Limitations:
♦Use a print speed of 2.5 ips. ♦Printhead warranty is reduced to 100,000 inches.
♦Serial bar codes cannot be printed. ♦Do not use peel mode
♦Reverse fonts cannot be used. ♦Not for use on full tinted supplies.
♦Do not print horizontal lines or bars. ♦Graphics are limited.
♦Requires a non-printing area at least 0.1 inch (2.54 mm) on left and right edge of ribbon.
♦No more than 20% of the supply should have print (black coverage).
CAUTION: The high energy ribbon may break or stick to the supply when more than 20% of
the supply contains print.

2-4 System Administrator’s Guide Classification: Avery Dennison - Public
Setting the Speed
Select the print speed in IPS (inches per second). If print quality is important, reduce the
print speed - a lower print speed increases the print quality of labels. Use premium
supplies when printing at high speeds.
Select To Select To
2.5 IPS Print at 2.5 IPS. 10.0 IPS Print at 10.0 IPS.
4.0 IPS Print at 4.0 IPS. 12.0 IPS Print at 12.0 IPS.
6.0 IPS
8.0 IPS
Print at 6.0 IPS.
Print at 8.0 IPS.
Default Print formats with serial bar codes at 2.5 IPS
and formats with parallel bar codes at 6.0 IPS.
Print Speed Considerations with RFID
The RFID settings in Easy Setup (and the RFID Printer Setup Utility) are based on
encoding 96-bits of EPC data with a lock code. If your RFID data is more complex than
96-bits of EPC data with a lock code, you may need to decrease the printer’s speed in
non-stop encode mode. The following examples may require a decreased print speed:
♦encoding 96-bits of EPC data and programming user memory
♦encoding more than 96-bits of EPC data with a lock code
♦encoding more than 96-bits of EPC data and programming user memory
When using Easy Setup to configure the printer for RFID supplies, the print speed may be
decreased. For example, some inlays encode better at slower speeds, so if the printer is
set for 8.0 ips, Easy Setup may change the print speed to use 4.0 ips instead.
The amount of programmable EPC data, user memory, access password, and lock code
data varies by print speed and RFID chip. If the printer cannot program all the RFID data
within the allotted time, an error occurs.
Recommended Maximum Print Speeds
If you change the speed, you must resend your formats or turn off the printer and back on
before the change takes effect. If you change the speed in offline mode, turn off the
printer then turn it back on before the change takes effect.

Setting the Feed Mode
Set the feed mode based on your application and supply type. To load supplies for liner
take-up, refer to the Operator’s Handbook.
Select To
Continuous Print tags or labels in one strip.
On-Demand Print one label, once that label is removed, the next label prints.
Liner Take-up Print labels while the liner is collected on a take-up reel inside the
printer. This is optional.
Setting the Cut Mode
Set how the printer cuts tags. Purchase the optional 933 Cutter. The supply may shift as
the cutter cuts and you may see a small disruption on the printed supply. This shift does
not affect bar code quality. There is no cut button on the printer – select the appropriate
cut mode for your application.
Since the cutter is 3.4 inches away from the printhead, printed tags may be left between
the printhead and cutter. The cutter operates when the printer is running. If the printer is
paused, the cutter stops cutting. The cutter also stops cutting whenever the cutter’s
cover is opened.
When cutting RFID supplies, enable tag saver.

there may be printed tags left between the printhead and the cutter. The user
must send another batch to feed the last tag out far enough to be cut.

2-6 System Administrator’s Guide Classification: Avery Dennison - Public
Cut Modes with RFID
Using RFID supplies, we recommend cut modes 1, 2, and 4 because
♦cut modes 3, 5 and 6 may cause ribbon tearing.
♦RFID supplies are more prone to curl and may cause a jam.
Contact Technical Support to order replacement 300 dpi printheads (KST) for use with the
cutter and RFID supplies.
Setting the Backfeed
Backfeed advances each printed label to the desired dispense position. Once that label is
removed, the next label to be printed is backed up underneath the printhead.
Select To
Off Disable backfeed.
On Enable backfeed. The printer moves the supply backwards before
printing. Use the Positioning menu to set the dispense position and the
backfeed distance.
Adjusting the Position Settings
This menu includes selections to change the print, supply, margin, cut, dispense, and
backfeed distance positions.
See the following graphic for a representation of the following adjustments: dispense
position, backfeed distance, supply position, print position, and margin position.

Classification: Avery Dennison – Public Setting Supply Options 2-7
Setting the Print Position
This function adjusts the image’s position on the supply in the feed direction. Adjust the
print position if the print is too close to the top or bottom of the supply, or overtypes the
pre-printed area. The adjustments are in dots where one dot equals 0.0049 inch.
Changing this setting only affects new formats sent to the printer. Any formats previously
saved into flash memory are not affected.
Select To
Decrease the setting. Moves the print down.
Increase the setting. Moves the print up.
Press 1to toggle the amount (1, 10, or 100).
Setting the Supply Position
This function adjusts the position of the supply relative to the index marks in the feed
direction. Adjust the supply position to compensate for supply variation. The
adjustments are in dots where one dot equals 0.0049 inch.
Adjust the supply position only on initial printer setup. For format adjustments, change
the print position. This option takes effect when you print the next label or tag. Changing
supply position may also affect print position.
Select To
Decrease the setting. Moves the print down.
Increase the setting. Moves the print up.
Press 1to toggle the amount (1, 10, or 100).

2-8 System Administrator’s Guide Classification: Avery Dennison - Public
Setting the Margin Position
This function adjusts where the format prints side to side on the supply. The adjustments
are in dots where one dot equals 0.0049 inch.
The width of the print area depends on the supply size. The maximum width is four
inches. When you move the image to the right or left on the supply, avoid moving the
image too close to either edge, because it may not print.
Changing this setting only affects new formats sent to the printer. Any formats previously
saved into flash memory are not affected.
Select To
Decrease the setting. Moves print to the left.
Increase the setting. Moves print to the right.
Press 1to toggle the amount (1, 10, or 100).
Setting the Cut Position
This function adjusts where the tag is cut. The printer adjusts the cut position according
to the index marks on the supply. Aperture supplies may need adjustments. Increase to
move the cut up; decrease to move the cut down.
Select To
Decrease the setting. Moves the cut down.
Increase the setting. Moves the cut up.
Press 1to toggle the amount (1, 10, or 100).

Classification: Avery Dennison – Public Setting Supply Options 2-9
Setting the Backfeed Distance
The function adjusts the amount to move the label backwards at the start of each batch
(or label in on-demand mode). The backfeed distance should be equal to or less than the
dispense position. If the backfeed distance is greater than the dispense position, the
dispense position automatically changes to match the backfeed distance.
Select To
Decrease the setting. Moves the print down.
Increase the setting. Moves the print up.
Press 1to toggle the amount (1, 10, or 100).
Note: When tearing butt cut supplies, the backfeed distance must be 30 dots (0.15
inches) less than the dispense position. This causes a 30-dot non-print zone on
the supply, but prevents exposed adhesive under the printhead.
Using Batch Separators
A batch separator is an extra tag printed in
between batches with a pinstripe pattern. For
continuous supply, the batch separator is always
six inches long. The batch’s name prints on the
batch separator.
Changing this setting only affects new formats
sent to the printer. Any formats previously
saved into flash memory are not affected.
Select To
No Disable batch separators.
Do not use batch separators with continuous (non-indexed) supply.
Yes Enable batch separators.
Long Enable double-length (two tags) batch separators.
Batch Separator

2-10 System Administrator’s Guide Classification: Avery Dennison - Public
Using Skip Index
Skip index mode skips (or ignores) a sense mark and prints an image over multiple
labels, if necessary. For example, if you have 4.0" long supplies loaded, but the image is
8.0" long, enable skip index mode to print the 8.0" long image on two labels. Use the skip
index feature when you have a single format that contains two labels, such as a shelf
label and a carton label.
The image length is determined by the format header. Refer to the Packet Reference
Manual for more information.
When designing the format, make sure text or graphics do not print in the gap of label
rolls. Do not use skip index with RFID supplies.
Select To
No Disable skip index.
Yes Enable skip index and print a format on two (multiple) labels.
Setting the Error Action
Sets how the printer recovers/responds to a bad RFID inlay or a bad barcode verifier
scan. Selecting overstrike and continue 1x-5x sets the number of times the printer prints
an overstrike pattern on consecutively bad labels/scans before generating an error. The
user must clear the error before operation can continue. The overstrike pattern prevents
someone from using a bad RFID label or label with a non-scannable bar code.
Note: Do not use the overstrike action with peel mode or string tags.
Select To
Normal Display the error. The error must be cleared before operation
can continue. Press CANCEL to clear the error and continue
printing. No overstrike pattern is printed.
