Chapter 12—Adjustments

LTS (Label Taken Sensor)

The sensitivity of the LTS may need to be adjusted according to ambi- ent light conditions and reﬂective characteristics of the back side of the media. This is done in the Setup Mode (Print Defs/LTS), see Chapter 7. You can also check that the LTS works properly.

The LTS setup options are only displayed if an optional label taken sensor is installed in the printer.

LTS Adjust

Press <Enter>. A label is fed out. Remove the label and press <Enter> again. A menu shows the sensitivity automatically selected by the ﬁrm- ware and the range, in which the LTS will work. Press <Enter> again and you will proceed to the LTS Test menu.

LTS Test

Press <Enter>. A label is fed out. Remove the label and a new label should be fed out automatically. Repeat until you are sure the LTS works properly. Then press <Enter> to stop and exit.

LTS Value

Press <Enter>. You can enter a new value in the range indicated in the LTS Adjust menu (see above). Min/max values are in the range 0 to 10.
