Advanced Gap Sensing
This figure shows a Media Profile printout of a smart label where
Gap/Mark Sensor is set to Advanced Gap in the CALIBRATE CTRL
menu.
In this example, the gap threshold value the printer selected
(represented by the Gap/Mark dotted line) is too close to the
amplitude of the antenna pulse. If there is an increase in noise or
the opacity of the liner or ribbon, the printer may falsely use the
antenna or noise as the gap (top-of-form).
