Choosing the Print Mode n Tear-off mode allows you to tear off each label, or a strip of labels, after it is printed. n In Peel-off mode, backing material is peeled away from the label as it is printed. After this label is removed from the printer, the next one is printed. n When in cutter mode, the printer automatically cuts the label after it is printed. n In rewind mode, the media and backing are rewound onto a core as the labels are printed. 8 Zebra XiIII-Series Users Guide
