2.3 Printer Parameter Fine Adjustment

2.3.7 Threshold Manual Fine Adjustment (Black Mark/Feed Gap Sensor)

This parameter is to set a threshold voltage of the black mark sensor or feed gap sensor.

When pre-printed media is used, and if the black mark sensor or feed gap sensor cannot properly detect a print start position even after an automatic threshold setting has been performed, set a threshold voltage here.

Usually, a threshold is a midpoint between the voltage at a print area and the voltage at a black mark (black mark sensor) or a gap (feed gap sensor).

When “<3>ADJUST SET” appears, press the [PAUSE] key until the following display appears.

<3>ADJUST SET THRESHOLD<R>1.0V

Threshold setting for the black mark sensor

To set the threshold for the feed gap sensor, press the [PAUSE] key again.

<3>ADJUST SET THRESHOLD<T>1.4V

Threshold setting for the feed gap sensor

When the LCD display shows “THRESHOLD<R>” or “THRESHOLD<T>”, select a desired value with the [FEED] or [RESTART] key. (Range: 0.0V to 4.0V)

[RESTART]

THRESHOLD<R>4.0V

THRESHOLD<R>3.9V

THRESHOLD<T>4.0V

THRESHOLD<T>3.9V

THRESHOLD<T>3.8V

THRESHOLD<T>0.1V

THRESHOLD<T>0.0V

[FEED] key: Pressing the [FEED] key one time causes a –0.1V change, up to 0.0V.

[RESTART] key: Pressing the [RESTART] key one time causes a +0.1V change, up to +4.0V.

After completing the fine adjustment, press the [PAUSE] key.

NOTE: If “0.0V” is set as a threshold voltage, it will be automatically changed to the initial value when the printer is turned off and back to on.

THRESHOLD<R>: 1.4V

THRESHOLD<T>: 1.0V
