How to Calibrate SATO CL4NX printer

This article explains how to calibrate the SATO CL4NX printer

Calibrating your SATO printer ensures it correctly detects the media (labels or tags) and prints in the correct position without cutting off content or skipping labels.

When to Calibrate

You should calibrate the printer if you experience any of the following:

  • Labels feeding incorrectly

  • Prints starting in the wrong position

  • Skipped labels

  • Recently changed media type or label size

  2. Press the CL4NX enter button.jpg button to show the Settings menu.
