Abstract
Provided herein is system and method for enhancing throughput of a thermal printer cutter. The system operates in a first printing mode in an instance in which a designated safe zone is detected. A second print media portion is traversed in downstream direction for printing after printing of a first print media until a designated safe zone is detected under a print head. The printing is suspended at a first point on the second print media portion. A first movement of the print media is caused in one of the downstream or upstream direction until a first cut point of the first print media portion is detected under cutter blade for cutting operation. A second movement of the print media is caused in one of the downstream or upstream direction until a third point is detected under print head. The printing resumes from the first point on the second print media portion.
