B.4.2 Manual Media Sensor Calibration
The Manual Media Sensor Calibration procedure should be used in cases where the printer continues to suffer
from media sensing problems after performing or attempting to perform the Auto Media Sensor Calibration.

Before calibrating, be sure the media sensor is set for the appropriate media type; also, ensure that
the Printhead Carrier Assembly is latched down and the cover is closed.
To manually calibrate the media sensor, proceed as follows:
1. Hold the
F3
button and power-up the printer. Continue to hold the button until the PAUSED Light turns off;
then release the button. Next, press and hold the
F2
button, continue to hold the button until the PAUSED
Light turns on; then release the button.
2. Place the media with the backing attached (if any) over the media sensor (see Section 2.3 for the
sensor’s location), close the Printhead Carrier Assembly, and then press the
F1
button. The printer will
flash the FAULT Light as it analyzes the material.
3. Position the backing material or the black (reflective) mark over the media sensor, close the Printhead
Carrier Assembly, and then press the
F2
button. The printer will flash the FAULT Light as it analyzes the
top of form mark.
4. Remove all the material from the media sensor, close the Printhead Carrier Assembly, and then press the
F3
button. The printer will flash the FAULT Light as it analyzes the no media condition.
5. Simultaneously and briefly press the
F1
+
F3
buttons to accept the calibration for “test” and exit the Media
Sensor Calibration. One of the following Indicators will flash five times to denote the result of the manual
calibration attempt:
PAUSED Light = Successful calibration. Proceed to Step 6.
FAULT Light = Unsuccessful calibration. Retry the procedure beginning at Step 1.
6. Use the
F2
button (feeds a label), and the
F3
button (prints a test label) to test the current calibration.

If you wish to discard the changes and revert back to the previous calibration simply turn off the
printer before Step 7.
7. Now save the changes and resume Normal Mode by pressing the
F1
+
F3
buttons simultaneously and
briefly. Wait until the PAUSED Light goes off.
