calibration procedure.

 

RIBBON

This procedure is used to adjust the sensitivity of the media and

ribbon sensors.

 

 

NOTE: The procedure must be followed exactly as presented.

 

 

 

All steps must be performed even if only one of the

 

 

 

sensors requires adjustment.

 

 

 

Media and Ribbon Calibration Procedure

 

 

 

 

 

 

1)

Open the printhead.

 

 

2)

Remove approximately 8" (203 mm) of labels from the media

 

LOAD BACKING

 

roll, enough so that only the backing material is threaded

 

 

 

between the media sensors when the media is loaded.

 

 

3)

Close the printhead.

 

 

NOTE: If you want to cancel the operation, press the (–) key.

 

 

 

 

 

 

1)

Open the printhead.

 

 

2)

Remove the ribbon (sliding it as far to the right as possible has

the same effect as removing it).

 

 

3)

Close the printhead.

 

 

NOTE: If you want to cancel the operation, press the (–) key.

 

 

 

 

 

The printer automatically adjusts the scale (gain) of the signals it

media and ribbon combination you are using. On the sensor

 

 

profile, this essentially corresponds to moving the graph up or

 

 

down to optimize the readings for your application.

 

 

 

 

 

When “RELOAD ALL” is displayed:

 

 

1)

Open the printhead and pull the media forward until a label is

positioned under the media sensor.

 

 

2)

Move the ribbon back to its proper position.

 

 

3)

Close the printhead.

 

 

 

 

 

Now that the scale has changed, the printer performs another

 

 

calibration. During this process, the printer checks the readings

for the media and ribbon based on the new scale you have

established, determines the label length, and determines whether

you are in direct thermal or thermal transfer print mode. The

 

 

process is now complete! To see the new readings on the new

 

 

scale, print a sensor profile.
