During the last step of Manual Calibrate, the printer will advance the
media and attempt to detect the label length indicators and stop at the
Top-of-Form position. The Sensed Distance value will then display for
one second. The calibrate is successful when the Sensed Distance value
correctly matches that of the installed media. If “CALIBRATION FAIL/See
Manual” displays, run Manual Calibrate again.

NOTE:

The amount of media sampled during Manual Calibrate is based on
the length of a label and the transitions detected without error,
between a label and its label length indicators.

NOTE:

After a form feed, the position of the leading edge of the next label

type of Media Handling mode selected under the

QUICK SETUP menu. Tear-Off and Tear-Off Strip Media Handling
positions the label edge at the tear bar, while Continuous positions
the label edge under the printhead.

configuration menu before powering off the printer. See “Saving a
Configuration” on page 76.
