3.4Quick Media Calibration

+When ‘Uncalibrated’ is displayed, follow the Media Sensor Calibration procedure in Section 5.0.

At the factory, the printer is calibrated to sense a wide range of media types. Quick Media Calibration fine-tunes the media sensor for your gap, notch or reflective media application. Note that this is not required if you are using continuous media. Perform this calibration during initial set-up or after changing your media type. To calibrate:

ŒEnsure that media is loaded (see Section 3.1), that the Media Sensor is adjusted (see Section 3.2), and that the printer is idle.

•Press and hold the FEED Key. The printer will begin advancing media; allow at least one label gap (or mark) to advance under the sensor during this process.

Upon successful completion, the ‘Calibration Completed’ message will flash; the printer will feed to the next label TOF and ‘Ready’ will be displayed. (A ‘Warning Low Backing’ message may appear if using notched media or media on a transparent liner; however, the calibration was successful).

þNote: Media containing large gaps may require a change in the ‘Paper Out Distance’ setting; see Section 4.1.2.

Calibration Hints:

In certain cases, the printer may have trouble differentiating between the label and liner. If the printer stops feeding in the middle of a label or if ‘Cannot Calibrate’ is displayed, try calibrating over a longer distance:

∙Press and hold the FEED Key to allow two or more gaps (or marks) to advance under the sensor.

If this method fails, see Media Sensor Calibration (Section 5.0).
