Abstract
Linerless media for labels is visibly or invisibly marked along its length with marks or small holes to indicate motion marks and/or position marks related to pre-printed label information. The marks are used to properly position pre-printed label information with respect to a printer printhead. The marks can also be used to detect critical speeds of the media that can cause problems such as standing waves or poor print quality from the printhead. The marks are also used to position and print on linerless media being pulled by hand through a printer having no drive motor.
