4.1.2			Media Settings
MEDIA TYPE				Selects the printing method.
	DIRECT THERMAL			For use with heat sensitive media.
	²THERMAL TRANSFER			For use with media requiring a ribbon to
				create an image.
SENSOR TYPE				Selects the top-of-form (TOF) sensing
				method for the media.
	²GAP			The printer recognizes the TOF by sensing
				gaps in the media.
	CONTINUOUS			No TOF sensing. The LABEL LENGTH
				setting determines the length.
	REFLECTIVE			The printer recognizes the TOF by sensing
				reflective (black) marks on the media.
LABEL LENGTH				When the Sensor Type is set to Continuous,
²04.00in (0-99.99)				this value is used to determine the TOF.
MAXIMUM LABEL LENGTH				Sets the maximum length between TOF
²16.00in			(0-99.99)	marks (gap or reflective). If this limit is
				exceeded, a top of form fault is declared.
PAPER OUT DISTANCE				Sets the length of travel before an Out of
²00.25in (0-99.99)				Stock condition is declared.
LABEL WIDTH				Sets the maximum limit for the printable
				surface width. Objects extending beyond this
				limit will not print; see Appendix C for the
				default values.
SENSOR CALIBRATION ♦				Adjusts the printer to sense your media.
	PERFORM CALIBRATION			The user follows steps to allow the printer to
				calculate the empty, gap (or mark), and
				paper values to set the media sensor.
	ADVANCED ENTRY			The user directly inputs the best values to
				adjust the media sensor.
		SENSOR LEVELS		Sets threshold values for the media sensor
				parameters. Manual entry for paper, gap (or
				mark), and empty thresholds.
		SENSOR GAIN		Observe A/D reading and set SENSOR
				GAIN. Adjusts the sensitivity of the sensor for
				custom label stock.
