Chain printing is an economical function designed to help eliminate "wasted tape" at the beginning of labels. Without chain printing, the usual leftover tape from the previous printing session is wasted before the first label in the current session is printed. However, if an Auto Cut setting using chain printing is selected, the last label in the previous session remains in the machine (is not fed out), so that the next label can be printed without wasting tape. 68
