5.0 Media Sensor Calibration
In addition to the Sensor Type selection, Media Sensor calibration ensures that
each label is detected correctly and reliably. Perform calibration when the
‘Uncalibrated’ message is displayed. Two different methods are available to
calibrate the printer: Standard and Advanced Entry.
5.0.1 Standard Calibration
Standard Calibration is appropriate for most media types. During the process,
the printhead assembly can be raised for visual access to the media and media
sensor. In addition, displayed sensor readings can be used to indicate the best
position over the media, which is helpful when using small, position-critical
TOF notches or marks. Three readings are required:
•
Empty: No media in the sensor.
•
Gap (or Mark): Only the backing, notch, or reflective mark in the sensor.
•
Paper: The label (with the liner attached) in the sensor.
To perform a Standard Calibration:
