Chapter 1 - Using the Printer Loading Media The PM4i can print on labels, tickets, tags, and continuous stock in various forms. The method you use to load media depends on how you want the printer to operate. The PM4i can print in these modes: • Tear-off (straight-through) • Peel-off (self-strip) • Cut-off • External supply • RFID If you are using Fingerprint, use the F key to load the same type of media. If you change the media type, or if the printer does not feed the media properly, simultaneously press the S and F keys to perform a "testfeed." If you are using IPL, save the label with the sensitivity number attached to the media roll. You need this number to set the media sensitivity. Loading Media for Tear-Off Printing In tear-off, or straight-through, printing mode, you manually tear off the media against the printer's tear bar. In tear-off mode, use these types of media: • Non-adhesive continuous stock • Self-adhesive continuous stock with liner • Self-adhesive labels with liner • Tickets with gaps (gap stock), with or without perforations • Tickets with black marks (mark stock), with or without perforations You can also install an optional label taken sensor so that the next copy in the batch is not printed until the current copy is removed.
