Printing Adjustments
2.
Press the
↓
key and
↵
key together until “ENTER SWITCH UNLOCKED”
displays.
3.
Press the TEST PRINT key until “Printer Tests/Auto Calibrate” displays.
4.
Press the
↵
key. Media advances until it can accurately detect the label
length indicators and then stops at the Top-of-Form position. The Sensed
Distance will then display for 1 second.
5.
Auto Calibrate is successful when the Sensed Distance value correctly
matches that of the installed media.
•
Gap/Mark Sensor = Gap: The Sensed Distance value is the physical
length of one label plus the length of one gap.
•
Gap/Mark Sensor = Mark: The Sensed Distance value is the
physical distance from the leading edge of one black mark to the
leading edge of the next.
•
Gap/Mark Sensor = Disable: Not applicable. If Gap/Mark Sensor is
set to Disable, the Sensed Distance value will not be updated.
If “GAP NOT DETECTED” displays you should run Auto Calibrate again.
If Auto Calibrate continues to end with an incorrect Sensed Distance
value displayed or a fault message displayed, you should run Manual
Calibrate as described on page 66 or see Table 15 on page 257.
NOTE: The amount of media sampled during Auto Calibrate is based on the
length of a label and transitions detected, without error, between a
label and its label length indicators.
6.
Press the PAUSE key until “OFFLINE” displays.
7.
Press the FEED key several times. Each time the FEED key is pressed
the media should advance one label length and stop.
NOTE: After a form feed, the position of the leading edge of the next label
depends on the type of Media Handling Mode selected under the
MEDIA CONTROL menu. Tear-Off and Tear-Off Strip Media
Handling will position the label edge at the tear bar, while Continuous
will position the label edge under the printhead.
8.
Press the PAUSE key until “ONLINE” displays.
Once the Sensed Distance value is confirmed, you will need to save it to the
desired configuration menu before powering off the printer. See “Saving A
Configuration” on page 72.
Running Media Profile
This feature provides a profile printout showing the relationship of the Paper
Out Threshold and the Gap/Mark Threshold values and illustrates if and when
each label length indicator is detected and the contrast difference between
the label length indicators and the label. The profile printout (see Figure 1 on
page 65) assists you in setting the thresholds for difficult media. This includes
pre-printed labels and labels with poor gap/media dynamic range.
Once Media Profile is initiated, the printer will continue to advance media and
print the profile in landscape until the
↵
key is pressed to stop printing.
