2.1.2 Standard Calibration
During calibration, the printhead assembly can be raised for visual access, which can be helpful when
using small, position-critical TOF notches or marks. Three sample readings are required:
•  Empty: No media in the sensor.
•  Gap (or Mark): Only the backing (liner), notch, or reflective mark in the sensor.
•  Paper: The label (with liner) in the sensor.
 
 
Make sure that the appropriate SENSOR TYPE has been selected, and then perform a Standard
Calibration following the steps below:
