SET BACK - Back-Feed Toggle

ConfigurationUnsupported

Plain English

Toggles automatic back-feed after each print (TSPL2 PG §SET BACK p135). When ON, the printer retracts to its print-start position after each label — useful for peel-off and tear-off workflows where the label needs to be repositioned before the next print. Persistent across power cycles. Distinct from the top-level `BACKFEED n` command, which is a one-shot retract by N dots.

When to use

On peel-off or tear-off deployments when each label needs to retract to a consistent start position automatically.

Syntax

SET BACK ON | SET BACK OFF
