2B Installing Digital Die-Cutting Label Stock

Digital Die-Cut Labels. If you are using the Printer to digitally die-cut your own shapes and sizes only Primera label stock can be used. This media comes from Primera with a smart chip that identifies the media, tracks the percentage remaining and automatically sets the sensor type to continuous. You will know it is installed when you see the Digital Die-cut Media percentage in the upper right corner of PrintHub. If you do not see this indication, the digital die cutter will not be enabled and you will not be able to cut shapes.
