Details

Stream Mode is a new Print Mode that has been introduced on the ZE500 printer.

It can be selected by one of the below methods: 
 Front Panel Menu – PRINT SETTINGS - PRINT MODE 
 ^XA^MMS^XZ 
 ! U1 setvar "media.printmode" "S" 
 

When selected and a batch of labels has been sent to the printer, backfeed only occurs on the first label printed. The second label will have started printing before the first label stops but will not complete its printing until the next Start Print signal/pulse is received.
 
This increases throughput while making sure the label is presented clear of the tear bar.
