4.6.1 Auto Media Sensor Calibration
Auto Media Sensor Calibration automatically establishes the optimum 
sensing values for the media you are using in the printer. 
;
Note:
Before calibrating, be sure the media sensor is set for the appropriate
media type, see Section 4.4.2; also, ensure that the Printhead Carrier 
Assembly is latched down and the cover is closed. 
To automatically calibrate the media sensor, proceed as follows:
1. With the desired media loaded, hold the
button while powering up
the printer. Continue to hold the button until the PAUSED Light turns 
off then release it. 
 
3. Next press the 
button. The printer will feed approximately ten
inches of media to calculate the TOF Delta and Low values to be 
used. 
 
4.
Upon completion, one of the following Indicators will flash five times 
to denote the result of the auto calibration attempt: 
PAUSED Light = Successful calibration. Proceed to Step 5.
FAULT Light = Unsuccessful calibration. Proceed to Section 4.6.2.
 
 
;
Note:
If you wish to discard the changes and revert back to the 
previous calibration simply turn off the printer before Step 5. 
 
5. Now save the changes and resume 
by pressing the
+
buttons simultaneously and briefly. Wait until the PAUSED
Light goes off.
