 NOTES: 1.  If the printer is not used for a few days, the top edge of the media may become curly, 
resulting in a paper jam.  The Auto Forward Wait Function prevents this problem since 
the media feed amount is increased so that the media stops past the platen.
 
  
2.  When the Stop Position Fine Adjustment Value is set to + direction, the media will stop 
past the media outlet. 
When the value is set to – direction, the media will stop inside the media outlet.
 
  
3.  This setting will be useful to fine adjust the cut position of labels.
