• Advanced Gap. Select when using media that has liner gaps
between die cut labels with black background. The top-of-form
position is the leading edge of the die cut label (trailing edge of
the gap, notch, or hole).
• Advanced Notch. Select when using media with notches or
holes that interrupt a black vertical line on the underside of the
media. The top-of-form position is the leading edge of the die
cut label (trailing edge of the gap, notch, or hole).
The default is Disable.
Auto Calibrate
This feature is used to improve the sensitivity and reliability of the
media sensor in detecting gaps, notches, holes, or black marks on
the installed media, as well as a Paper Out condition.
To initiate Auto Calibrate, scroll to the “Auto Calibrate” menu and
press the
↵
key. The printer will advance media the distance
needed to accurately detect the label length indicators, then stop at
the top-of-form position and momentarily display the Sensed
Distance. This process takes a few seconds and results in an
update of the printer values.
Auto Calibrate is completed successfully when the Sensed
Distance displayed correctly matches that of the installed media.
When you select Gap, the Sensed Distance should match the
length from the trailing edge of one gap to the trailing edge of the
next gap (one label + one gap). When you select Mark, the Sensed
Distance should match the length from the leading edge of one
black mark to the leading edge of the next black mark.
Auto Calibrate supports label lengths up to 24 inches.
Save Config.

different print job requirements. This eliminates the need to change
the parameter settings for each new job. The configurations are
stored in memory and will not be lost if you turn off the printer. The
default is 1.
