Note: This adjustment is initially set during final printer
calibration. Under normal circumstances, further
adjustments should not be necessary. The exception to this
might be the use of media with exceptionally thick or thin
backing, which could require re-adjustment of the Sensor
Sensitivity.
This adjustment may need to be performed if the Paper/Ribbon
light comes ON with (1) the media and ribbon properly installed
for thermal transfer mode or (2) media only properly installed for
the direct thermal mode.
The following procedure is used to perform the Media and Ribbon
Range Adjustment.
1. Turn the printer OFF.
2. Open the Printhead.
3. Remove as many labels as needed to create at least 12 inches
of blank backing material. Load the blank backing material un-
der the printhead.
Note: Be sure that blank backing material is positioned between
the upper and lower Media Sensors.
4. Remove the ribbon. (Sliding it as far from the printer wall as
possible will have the same effect as removing it.)
5. Close the Printhead.
6. Hold the Pause, Feed, and Cancel keys depressed while turn-
ing the printer ON. Once the printer is ON, release the keys.
7. The following two sets of lights will begin flickering, signify-
ing that the adjustment has been made.
The PRINTHEAD and PAPER/RIBBON lights.
The DARKEN and POSITION lights.
Note: If only one pair of lights is flickering, it indicates that the
adjustment was not successful. Go back to Step 1 and start
over.
8. Open the Printhead.
