To accommodate a variety of media types the printer is equipped with three sensors. A dual position

transmissive sensor (for gap and notch type label media) and a reflective sensor (for “black mark” type

label media). Several media types and their proper sensor settings are shown below:

*Requires the “Label

Length” value to be set.


Most applications that use Gap Label Media will use the default setting of “Gap Inner”. However if “black

mark” or custom notch media is being used this setting must be changed.


The Media Sensor setting can be changed using the DMXConfig utility, see section 3.3 for more

information.

The Media Sensor settings can also be configured using the printer’s internal web pages via a LAN

connection. Simply enter the IP of the printer in your browser to access these pages.
