3.7.2  Manual Media Calibration 
 
The Manual Media Calibration is intended for use when Quick Media Calibration printer has failed to detect the 
start of each label. This procedure performs a complete recalibration of the sensors and will optimize the 
printer to your media. In some instances you may need to perform a Quick Media Calibration after the Manual 
Media Calibration to further optimize the printer’s sensor.  
 
Sensor calibration is needed to set either the black mark or the gap value of the media sensor on the printer. 
The Manual Media Calibration can be performed using the NETira CT configuration utility, (see section 3.5 for 
more information on NETira CT).  
 
Launch the NETira CT configuration utility, and query (connect) to the printer.
