5.4 Threshold Setting
To maintain a constant print position the printer uses the Transmissive
Sensor to detect the gap between labels by measuring the amount of
light passing through the media. When the media is pre-printed, the
darker (or more dense) inks can interfere with this process causing
paper jam errors. To get around this problem a minimum threshold can
be set for the sensor in the following way.
