Media Scan
Use Media Scan to fine tune sensor sensitivity and/or
adjust scan length if media is not printing correctly, or to
determine if a type of media is going to have problems
printing. This is generally due to the sensors having
trouble differentiating between the label surface and
backing/gap.
NOTE: If using notched Tags, open the Top Cover and slide the
white magnetic strip [A] back to uncover the See-Thru Sensor [B].
Cover the Sensor for all other media.
