2.PRINTER SETUP
ENGLISH VERSION
2.13 Threshold Setting
2.13 Threshold Setting | To maintain a constant print position the printer uses the media sensor to |
| detect a print start position according to the difference of voltage between |
| a print area and a gap or black mark. When the media is |
| darker (or more dense) inks can interfere with this process causing paper |
| jam errors. |
| To get around this problem, first, try an automatic threshold setting. |
| If the problem still occurs, then, the threshold voltage needs to be |
| manually set. |
Automatic threshold setting procedure
1.Turn the power ON. The printer is in online mode.
2.Load a
When using a label stock, move the Feed Gap Sensor so that it is in line with the centre of the label.
When using a tag stock, move the Black Mark Sensor so that it is in line with the centre of a black mark.
3.Press the [PAUSE] key.
4.The printer enters the pause mode.
5.Press and hold the [PAUSE] key in the pause state until the following screen appears.
6. The sensor type is displayed.
NOTES:
1.Failure to feed more than 1.5 labels may result in an incorrect threshold setting.
2.While the Top Cover is raised, the [PAUSE] key does not work
3.A paper end error cannot be detected during paper feed.

8.Press and hold the [PAUSE] key until more than 1.5 labels (tags)
have been issued.
The media will continue to be fed until the [PAUSE] key is released. (An automatic threshold setting for the selected sensor is completed by this operation.)
