MEDIA AND
RIBBON
CALIBRATE
Media and Ribbon Sensor Sensitivity: Press NEXT/SAVE to
skip the calibration procedure and continue with the host port
selection parameters that follow. Press the (+) key to start the
calibration procedure.
This procedure is used to adjust the sensitivity of the media and
ribbon sensors.
NOTE: The procedure must be followed exactly as presented.
All steps must be performed even if only one of the
sensors requires adjustment.
Media and Ribbon Calibration Procedure
LOAD BACKING
1) Open the printhead.
2) Remove approximately 8" (203 mm) of labels from the media
roll, enough so that only the backing material is threaded
between the media sensors when the media is loaded.
3) Close the printhead.
NOTE: If you want to cancel the operation, press the (–) key.
REMOVE RIBBON
1) Open the printhead.
2) Remove the ribbon (sliding it as far to the right as possible has
the same effect as removing it).
3) Close the printhead.
NOTE: If you want to cancel the operation, press the (–) key.

CALIBRATING
PLEASE WAIT
The printer automatically adjusts the scale (gain) of the signals it
receives from the media and ribbon sensors based on the specific
media and ribbon combination you are using. On the sensor
profile, this essentially corresponds to moving the graph up or
down to optimize the readings for your application.
— RELOAD ALL
When “RELOAD ALL” is displayed:
1) Open the printhead and pull the media forward until a label is
positioned under the media sensor.
2) Move the ribbon back to its proper position.
3) Close the printhead.

CALIBRATE
Now that the scale has changed, the printer performs another
calibration. During this process, the printer checks the readings
for the media and ribbon based on the new scale you have
established, determines the label length, and determines whether
you are in direct thermal or thermal transfer print mode. The
process is now complete! To see the new readings on the new
scale, print a sensor profile.
