Intermec PF4I manual LSS Auto

Chapter 12—Adjustments

In the Print Defines part of the Setup Mode, you have two ways to test the label stop sensor if you have a detection problem; LSS Auto and LSS Manual.

The menus only provides indications from the label stop sensor unit. The testing menus can determine if the sensor unit is not physically in position, is blocked by dust or stuck labels, or is defective in some way. Furthermore, this is an aid if media has detection complication.

Note: There is no way to adjust the LSS-function; the menus only indicate values from the LSS obtained by performing a TESTFEED operation.

LSS Auto is the quick and normal way to determine if the label stop sensor works properly and is able to detect gaps, slots, or black marks.

LSS Manual shows the actual setting provided by the latest TESTFEED operation. It is also possible to try other settings. LSS Manual is primar- ily intended for service and is not described in this manual.
