7.1 THRESHOLD SETTING
To maintain a constant print position the printer uses the Transmissive Sensor to detect the gap
between labels by measuring the amount of light passing through the media. When the media is pre-
printed, the darker (or more dense) inks can interfere with this process causing paper jam errors. To
get around this problem a minimum threshold can be set for the sensor in the following way.
