Media Calibration

After loading a new label roll or changing label dimensions, perform media calibration so that the printer detects label gaps and I-Marks correctly.

1. Remove several labels from the start of the roll to expose the label liner.

2. Feed the exposed liner under the print head.

3. On the printer control panel, open Menu → Settings → Printing → Advanced.

4. Select Calibrate.

5. Select Auto-Calibration.

6. Select Gap + I-Mark.

7. Allow the calibration process to complete.

After calibration is complete, the printer is ready for normal operation.
