The printer can be set to calibrate automatically, or you can calibrate it manually.

When the control panel setting for 

MEDIA POWER UP

 or 

HEAD CLOSE

 is set to 

CALIBRATION

, the printer automatically calibrates on power up or when the printhead is 

closed. During auto calibration, the printer determines the label length and sensor settings. The 
results of the auto calibration are stored in the printer’s memory and are retained even if printer 
power is removed. These parameters remain in effect until the next calibration is performed.

Perform a media and ribbon sensor calibration to reset the sensitivity of the sensors so the 
media and ribbon are detected more accurately. If you change the type of ribbon or media, 
your printer may operate better if you perform this calibration.

For instructions, refer to

If the control panel settings for 

MEDIA POWER UP

 or 

HEAD CLOSE

 are set to 

LENGTH, NO MOTION, or FEED, the printer starts printing without auto calibrating. See
