CX208/212 Programming Guide

command stream will calibrate the printer in the thermal transfer mode for gap sensing:

<ESC>A<ESC>CP1<ESC>CI2<ESC>CA<ESC>Z

When Auto-Calibrate is enabled, the printer will automatically attempt to calibrate when it detects an out-of-paper condition (10" of platen feed after a label is printed without detecting a label edge or sense mark). If the calibration is successful, the printer shall move paper to the next index mark and resume normal operations. If the calibration is not successful, the printer shall indicate an out-of-paper condition by a red READY LED and the printer shall restore the original index circuit settings.
