Calibrating for Media Types
Calibrating the printer for the type of media being used is essential and is the
first procedure that must be performed prior to printing and whenever the
media type is changed. If the printer is not properly calibrated, any of the
following may occur:
•
Printer will not initiate printing
•
Media advances but no image is printed
•
Printer will report a Media Out error
•
Image placement is incorrect or the printed image is clipped
•
Custom QuickLabel software reports an error
The calibration process automatically senses any gap, notch, or index mark
on the media. This allows the printer to position widely varying types of
media automatically and correctly. The printer stores the last calibration in
non-volatile memory.
The printer’s internal label queue is reset during the calibration process. Any
labels pending in the queue are terminated. Use the procedures on the
following pages to perform a media calibration.
Note: Calibration need not be performed frequently if you use the same type
of label or tag material, regardless of size.
Calibrating Gap Media
