2.Select the transparent sensor, and open the sensor arm.

3.Install only the liner media (label backing paper) with the label media removed so that it will pass between the platen roller and the media sensor. (Be careful that media with black marks does not pass the media sensor.) Then close the sensor arm and the printhead.
