The CL408/CL412e printers determine the location of the leading edge of the label by
measuring the difference between light levels when it sees either a label gap or a black
"EYE" mark. This adjustment allows you to manually set the threshold voltage level
between the maximum and minimum light levels. DIP switch DSW2-2 selects the sensor
type. If DSW2-2 is in the OFF position, the setting will be for a See-Thru (or Gap) sensor
and the LCD will display "GAP" on the top line along with the current setting. If DSW2-2 is
in the ON position, the LCD will display "EYE" on the top line with its current setting. If
the value entered for the bottom line setting is "0.0V", then the printer will automatically
calculate the setting when the first label is fed after the printer is powered on or the head
is closed. There are some instances where the automatically calculated value must be
adjusted to ensure reliable label feeding, such as when the backing opacity or the
reflectance of the "EYE" mark varies significantly within a roll of labels or between label
rolls. In these instances the value should be set using the following procedures.
