LABEL SENSOR POSITIONING

The label sensor assembly provides a mounting apparatus for the eye-mark, gap, and paper-end sensors. Position adjustment of the label sensor is not required when using standard label media.

When non-standard media is used, place a section of the media on the media ramp oriented as if loaded for printing. Manually grasp the sensor assembly and move it laterally so that the sensor indicators embossed in its side are aligned with the reference marks on the media.

Sensor positioning may also be achieved by measuring from the printer’s center frame outward to a specified distance for sensor/reference mark alignment.
