Media and Ribbon Sensor Calibration
Performing the manual calibration procedure resets the sensitivity of the sensors to detect the media and ribbon you are using more accurately. 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.

| Sensor Profile: Press PLUS (+) to print a media sensor |
| profile. |
| The media sensor profile may be used to troubleshoot |
| registration problems that may be caused when the media |
| sensor detects preprinted areas on the media or experiences |
| difficulty in determining web location. If the sensitivity of |
| the media and/or ribbon sensors MUST be adjusted, use the |
| manual calibration procedure. |
MEDIA AND RIBBON | Press SELECT to display MEDIA AND RIBBON |
