Calibrating Media Sensors

Important:

The first time media is installed, the Media Sensor 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. While pressing and holding the FEED key, power on the printer.

4. The READY LED (right most LED) will blink twice.

5. Continue to hold the FEED key until the printer begins to feed the media.

6. Release the FEED key.

7. When feeding stops the printer has completed the Media Sensor Calibration procedure.

The print head module can be opened and the media may be manually reversed back to
the first label to save label stock.

8. After closing the print head module, press the FEED key again to re-align the media to

the top of the label.

Note: For the Calibration procedure to function properly the proper Media Sensing Type

(Gap or Black Bar) must be selected. This setting may be made using the
FeatureMan program supplied.
