Calibrating Sensors and Changing
Settings
The calibration of sensors and setting of the device functions is
done using the feed button while the device is being switched
on . The LED display will flash and change colors throughout the
process .
Color sequence (change every 5 seconds)

Green
Green/yellow
Red/yellow
The feed button must be held down while the colors change
until the LED display shows the correct color for the desired
function, e .g . “red” to calibrate the sensors .

Description
Define the sensor for black marking as
the media sensor and calibrate
Green/yellow
To calibrate labels with black markings
Define the distance sensor as the media
sensor and calibrate
Red/yellow
To calibrate labels with gaps
Calibrate sensor for black marking and
distance sensor
Red
For the initial calibration when using individual labels . The
calibration is saved to protected memory .
Calibrate sensor for black marking and
distance sensor, perform self-test, and
print in core dump mode
Yellow
The following functions are run one after the other:
− The sensitivity of the sensors is set . During this process, the
device measures the length of the labels .
− The device performs a self-test and prints the configuration
data (see Chapter “7 .6 .1 Check the Configuration Data of the
Device”, page 19) .
− The device prints a core dump (see Chapter “7 .6 .2 Checking
Restore device to factory settings
Green
If the device has been calibrated to print individual labels: To
change calibration to print on continuous paper
The following functions are conducted:
− The internal memory (DRAM) is deleted .
− The device is reset to factory settings .
Requirements
− The ink ribbon and media have been inserted in the device .
− If a self-test needs to be performed: The inserted media
have the required minimum width (see Chapter “12 .1
Decontaminating the Device”, page 22) .
