Calibrating Media Sensors
Important: The first time media is installed, the Media Sensors must be calibrated.
After the first calibration no further calibration is required unless the media type (length,
color, backing material, etc.) is changed or irregular feeding occurs.
1. Ensure the printer is powered off.
2. Verify that the media is properly loaded and routed as detailed in Loading Media Section.
3. Verify the Media Sensor is properly positioned directly over the object to be sensed (gap,
hole, notch).
4. While pressing and holding the PAUSE/ CALIBR. button, power on the printer.
5. Release the PAUSE/ CALIBR . button when the media begins to feed.
6. When feeding stops the printer has completed the Label Sensor Calibration procedure. The
LCD will indicate if the calibration was successful or not and display the form and gap
length. If unsuccessful, refer to the section Loading Media and verify each step.
7. When the printer completes the Label Sensor Calibration procedure it will save the related
parameters (sensor, label length, gap/notch/hole length) to EEPROM.
