CALIBRATE CTRL

HeadClose Action

Selects whether the printer performs a selected action after a print head open
fault condition is cleared.

Disable. No media motion after a print head open fault condition is
cleared.

Auto-Cal. Performs a media calibration every time the print head open
fault condition is cleared.

Seek TOF. Moves the media to TOF (Top Of Form) when the printhead is
closed. The media should already be calibrated using Gap/Mark sensor.

NOTE: A seek to TOF will not occur if Gap/Mark Sensor is set to Disable or

Ticket Save Mode is set to Enable.

The factory default is Disable.

NOTE: If Ticket Save Mode is enabled, you will not be able to set

HeadClose Action to Auto-Cal or Seek TOF. A temporary message,
“Disable/Ticket Save Mode” will display.

NOTE: If there is data pending (data in buffer) when the head open fault is

cleared, Auto-Cal and Seek TOF are ignored.

Online Auto-Cal

NOTE: Online Auto-Cal will not function when the validator is enabled or

when Error Recover (under MEDIA CONTROL) is enabled (see
page 132).

The options for Online Auto-Cal are:

Disable.

Enable. Whenever the printer is brought online, it automatically performs
an Auto Calibrate (see “Auto Calibrate” on page 139). Once the Auto
Calibrate is complete, the printer momentarily displays the Sensed
Distance determined by the Auto Calibrate and then resumes printing any
pending jobs.

NOTE: If using the Online Auto-Cal feature, you must first enable it prior to

printing any data.

NOTE: If Ticket Save Mode is enabled, you will not be able to set

Online Auto-Cal to Enable. A temporary message, “Disable/Ticket
Save Mode” will display.

The factory default is Disable.
