Ok, this is easily solved in 3 different ways 1) Driver: Download the greatest driver I know, the one developed by the NiceLabel guys: www.nicedrivers.com you need to go on right click in te driver(Start/Control panel/TEC Toshiba...) choose properties. In options you will have the chance to verify the gap mode(continous/black mark/ etc). You can also calbrate your printer from there. 2) If your printer needed to calibrate, turn-it off, then, by holding the feed button, turn-it on and let go after 3 seconds, or after you see a light. It will calibrate automatically with your label size at that moment, it may also print the printer settings, so be prepared for stoping the baby. 3) If you have a barcode software(did i say I reccomend NiceLabel?), you can set the instructions on 1) directly from printer settings. Good luck, peace.

Please give me more feedback, can't help you with that.
