Adjust Media Sensors
The transmissive sensor consists of two sections: a light source (the lower media sensor) and a
light sensor (the upper media sensor). The media passes between the two. The upper media
sensor can be positioned along the inside half of the media (the side closest to the back of the
printer) or the outside half of the media (the side farthest from the back of the printer).
Adjust these sensors only when the printer cannot detect the top of the label. The control panel

, even though there are labels loaded in
the printer.
Upper Media Sensor—Inside Half of Media
To adjust the upper media sensor for the inside half of the media, complete
these steps:
1. Remove the ribbon (if ribbon is used).
2. See Figure 20 . Locate the upper media sensor. The upper media sensor eye is directly
below the adjustment screw head.

3. Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, slightly loosen the upper media sensor adjustment
screw.
4. Using the tip of the screwdriver, slide the upper sensor along the slot to the desired
position (for non-continuous media with a notch or hole in the media, the sensor must be
directly above the notch or hole).
