[. . . ] This operational mode is specifically applicable to print operations where the label is to be immediately adhered. LINERLESS (Non Sepa) MODE When the linerless option is installed and enabled, this mode of operation allows for the feeding and printing of linerless media. In this mode, the printer's functionality is the same as with the continuous or tear-off modes depending on configuration settings. Page 8-6 LD610 User's Technical Reference Section 8: Appendix 8. 5 BASE REFERENCE POINT The base reference point is the point at which one determines the print and cut positions. The base reference position differs, depending on the print mode or the label pitch sensor to be used.
