Media and Ribbon Sensor Calibration
Performing the manual calibration procedure first resets the sensitivity of the sensors to better detect the media and ribbon you are using. With the sensors at their new sensitivity, the printer then performs the manual calibration. Changing the type of ribbon and/or media may require resetting the sensitivity of the media and ribbon sensors.
