Media and Ribbon Sensor Calibration
Performing the manual calibration procedure first resets the sensitivity of the sensors to better
detect the media and ribbon you are using. With the sensors at their new sensitivity, the printer
then performs the manual calibration. Changing the type of ribbon and/or media may require
resetting the sensitivity of the media and ribbon sensors.

preprinted areas on the media or experiences difficulty in determining web
location. If the sensitivity of the media and/or ribbon sensors MUST be
adjusted, use the manual calibration procedure.
