4.6 Paper sensor adjustments
Using the paper sensor adjust-knob, adjustments to the paper sensor can be made to suit the kind of
media that is being used.
Before making adjustments, the paper must be loaded and the pinch roller be lowered. The two holes in
the sensor arm correspond to the two different sensor positions, i.e., a hole ‘R’ for the reflective sensor
and a hole ‘T’ for the transparent sensor.
When using black mark tag or label paper, align the R hole with the black mark. When using
corner-with-a-radius cut tag or gap label paper, align the T hole with the cut or gap. The paper sensors
are moved away from you by turning the paper sensor adjust-knob (white) counterclockwise and towards
you by turning the paper sensor adjust-knob clockwise.
