RFID Calibration

RFID calibration sets communication parameters for your tag type. This procedure must be done after the printer is calibrated for the media (length and gap settings), typically a label length calibration. During the RFID calibration process, the printer moves the media, calibrates the RFID tag position, and determines the optimal settings for the RFID media being used.

These settings include the programming position and the read/write power level to use. To restore the printer’s default programming position at any time, use the Restore option in the

rfid.tag.calibrate

SGD command.

Do not remove any labels or tags from the liner (label backing or ‘web’). This allows the printer to determine RFID settings that do not encode adjacent tags.

Always a Label Length Calibration and RFID Calibration when you change media type. However, this step is unnecessary when replacing an empty roll of the same media.
