Manual Calibration

Manual Calibration

Manual calibration is recommended whenever you are using pre-printed media or if the printer will not correctly auto-calibrate.
  1. Make sure media is loaded.
  2. Turn printer power on.
  3. Press and hold the
    Feed
    button until the green status light flashes once, then twice, and then continuing until the flash groups reach the group of seven flashes. Release the
    Feed
    button.
    The printer will set the media sensor for the label backing being used. After it is done making this adjustment, the roll will automatically feed until a label is positioned at the printhead. A profile of the media sensor settings (similar to the example below) will print. Upon completion, the printer will save the new settings in memory and the printer is ready for normal operation.
  4. Press the
    Feed
    button. One entire blank label will feed. If this does not happen, try defaulting (refer to the four-flash sequence in Feed Button Modes) and recalibrating the printer.
    Performing a manual calibration disables the auto-calibration function. To return to auto-calibration, default the printer (see the four-flash sequence in Feed Button Modes).
