When using paper with a black on the front adjust this setting to insure the paper stops at the black mark.
1. With the lid closed and the black mark not over the front paper sensor, note the Sensor Brightness.
2. Open the paper lid and hold the paper against the front paper sensor so that the black mark is over the
sensor. Note the Sensor Brightness.
3.
Set Threshold = black mark brig ((paper brightness – black mark brightness) / 2) and click Submit
Changes.
Example: black mark brightness = 10%, paper brightness = 80%.
Threshold = 10% + ((80% - 10%) / 2) = 45%.
4. Close lid and press paper feed. The paper should stop with the bottom of the form at the tearbar.
Rear Paper Sensor Threshold
This is set the same as the front paper threshold, but using the rear (in lid) paper sensor and the Rear Sensor

Gap Paper Sensor Threshold
When using labels without a Black Mark, adjust this setting to insure the label stops at the gap in between labels.
1. Remove 2 labels from the backing paper, and close the lid so the backing is over the paper sensor. Note
Sensor Brightness for Gap.
2. Open the lid and close it so a label is over the paper sensor. Note Sensor Brightness for Gap.
3. Set Gap Threshold = label brig ((backing brightness – label brightness) / 2) and click Submit
Changes.
4. Close lid and press paper feed. The paper should stop with the bottom of the form at the tearbar.
