4.7.1 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 4.5.2; also, ensure that the

Printhead Carrier Assembly is latched down and the cover is closed.

To automatically calibrate the media sensor:

1. With the desired media loaded, hold the

CANCEL

button while powering up the printer. Continue to hold the button

until the

STOP

light turns off then release it.

2. Next press the

PAUSE

button. The printer will feed approximately ten inches of media to calculate the TOF Delta

and Low values to be used.

3. Upon completion, one of the following lights will flash five times to denote the result of the auto calibration attempt:

STOP

light = Successful calibration. Proceed to Step 4.

ERROR

light = Unsuccessful calibration, try again. If the calibration continues to fail proceed to Section 4.7.2.

;

Note:

If you wish to discard the changes and revert back to the previous calibration simply turn off the printer before Step

4.

4. Now save the changes and resume

by pressing the

PAUSE

+

CANCEL

buttons simultaneously and

briefly. Wait until the

STOP

light goes off.
