4.7.2 Manual Media Sensor Calibration
The Manual Media Sensor Calibration procedure should be used in cases where the printer continues to suffer from media sensing problems after performing or attempting to perform the Auto Media Sensor Calibration (see Section 4.7.1).
;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 manually calibrate the media sensor:
1.Hold the 
CANCEL button and 
STOP light turns off; then release the button. Next, press and hold the 
FEED button, continue to hold the button until the 
STOP light turns on; then release the button.
2.Remove all the material from the media sensor, (see Section 3.3 for the sensor’s location), close the Printhead Carrier Assembly, and then press the 
CANCEL button. The printer will flash the 
ERROR light as it analyzes the no media condition.
3.Position the backing material or the black (reflective) mark in the media sensor, close the Printhead Carrier Assembly, and then press the 
FEED button. The printer will flash the 
ERROR light as it analyzes the top of form mark.
4.Place the media with the backing attached (if any) in the media sensor,close the Printhead Carrier Assembly, and then press the 
PAUSE button. The printer will flash the 
ERROR light as it analyzes the material.
5.Simultaneously and briefly press the 
PAUSE + 
CANCEL buttons to accept the calibration for “test” and exit the
. One of the following lights will flash five times to denote the result of the manual calibration attempt:
STOP light = Successful calibration. Proceed to Step 6.
ERROR light = Unsuccessful calibration. Retry the procedure beginning at Step 1.
6.Use the 
FEED button (feeds a label), and the 
CANCEL button (prints a test label) to test the current calibration.
; Note: If you wish to discard the changes and revert back to the previous calibration simply turn off the printer before Step 7.
7.Now save the changes and resume 
by pressing the 
PAUSE + 
CANCEL buttons simultaneously and briefly. Wait until the 
STOP light goes off.
