SET GAP
Description
This setting sets the gap sensor emission sensitivity. The printer initiates automatic gap
sensor calibration when the PAUSE key is held down while powering up. This function may
cease to work if the thickness of the backing paper and that of label with backing paper are
not of appreciable difference to the sensor, or when there are pre-printed marks or patterns
on the label. In such case, users must calibrate the gap sensor manually by this command
through trial-and-error method to attain the proper setting. This setting will be saved in
printer memory when turning off the power.

confirm if the label is continuous.

defined to the GAP of the media.
