During this procedure, the printer automatically determines the media
type, label length, media and ribbon sensor settings, and printing
method. Media type is determined by sensing either continuous or
non-continuous media as blank labels move through the printer. If
non-continuous media is sensed, Label Length is also calibrated. If rib-
bon is sensed, the Thermal Transfer Print Method is configured. If no
ribbon is present, the Direct Thermal Print Method is configured.
The results of this calibration are stored in the printer’s memory. These
parameters will remain in effect until the next calibration is performed.
The Printer Configuration Printout, which prints when the CANCEL
Key Self Test is performed, lists these results as well as other printer
parameters.
Note: If the printer is in the Peel-Off Mode, the operator must
“catch” the labels as they are peeled away from the backing
during this procedure.
1. Load media and ribbon (if used). Make sure the Media Sensor is prop-
erlypositioned(see“Adjustments”).
IMPORTANT: To use the Black-Mark Sensing Mode, make sure you
settheBank2DIPswitchesappropriately(seepage4-3).
2. Turn the power switch ON. When the Power ON Self Test is complete,
the POWER, PAUSE, and PAPER/RIBBON lights will be ON.
3. Press the MODE key three times briefly. PAUSE and CALIBRATE
lights turn ON.
4. Press UP (FEED Key) to calibrate. The printer feeds some media. The
MODE lights will flash ON and OFF to indicate that the settings have
been saved in memory.
5. Press PAUSE to exit PAUSE mode. PAUSE light turns OFF.
