4.6.2 Manual Media Sensor Calibration
The Manual Media Sensor Calibration procedure should be used in cases
where the printer continues to suffer from media sensing problems after
performing or attempting to perform the Auto Media Sensor Calibration
(see Section 4.6.1).
; Note: Before calibrating, be sure the media sensor is set for the appropriate
media type, see Section 4.4.2; also, ensure that the Printhead Carrier
Assembly is latched down and the cover is closed.
To manually calibrate the media sensor:
1.
Hold the button and power-up the printer. Continue to hold the
button until the PAUSED Light turns off; then release the button.
Next, press and hold the
button, continue to hold the button until
the PAUSED Light turns on; then release the button.
2.
Place the media with the backing attached (if any) over the media
sensor (see Section 3.2 for the sensor’s location), close the Printhead
Carrier Assembly, and then press the
button. The printer will
flash the FAULT Light as it analyzes the material.
3. Position the backing material or the black (reflective) mark over the
media sensor, close the Printhead Carrier Assembly, and then press
the
button. The printer will flash the FAULT Light as it analyzes
the top of form mark.
4. Remove all the material from the media sensor, close the Printhead
Carrier Assembly, and then press the
button. The printer will
flash the FAULT Light as it analyzes the no media condition.
5. Simultaneously and briefly press the
+
buttons to accept the
calibration for “test” and exit the
. One of the
following Indicators will flash five times to denote the result of the
manual calibration attempt:
PAUSED Light = Successful calibration. Proceed to Step 6.
FAULT Light = Unsuccessful calibration. Retry the procedure
beginning at Step 1.
6. Use the
button (feeds a label), and the button (prints a test label)
to test the current calibration.
