Printer Configuration

Mark Sensitivity

Mark Sensitivity
0

Possible Values: -10 …0* …+10

This feature allows the Black Mark/Paper sensor to be adjusted to allow for variations in media materials and
Black Mark printing methods. The following list will help determine if, and how, the Mark Sensitivity should
be adjusted.

• If the printer is not detecting black marks reliably, set the Mark Sensitivity to a lower value.

• If the printer is detecting false Check Paper errors, set the Mark Sensitivity to a higher value.

• If the printer is detecting black marks where none exist, set the Mark Sensitivity to a higher value.

Gap Sensitivity

Gap Sensitivity
0

Possible Values: -10 …0* …+10

This feature is used to adjust the sensing of gaps between labels when using precut labels that are provided on a
removable backing. The following method should be used to adjust the gap sensor.

• If the printer is not detecting gaps between labels reliably, set the Gap Sensitivity to a higher value.

• If the printer is detecting gaps where none exist, set the Gap Sensitivity to a lower value.

Note: This feature is only available in MtP300 LP models.

Tear to Mark Distance

Tear to Mark Dst
0.0000”

Possible Values: -0.7092” …0.0000”* …1.7927”

This feature is used to set the distance from the tear position on the paper/labels to the black mark. If the tear
position is above the black mark, the value is negative. If the tear position is below the black mark, the value is
positive.

Present Distance

Present Distance
0.0000”

Possible Values: 0.0000”* …1.2911”

This feature sets the distance the paper is moved forward after the black mark is sensed. When the black mark
is sensed, the paper will be fed forward by this amount to allow for tearing or peeling of a label. When the next
print job begins, the paper will be reverse fed this same amount before printing begins.

When the Tear to Mark Distance is a negative value, this is typically set to the inverse of that value.
