Setting the MSN for Other Media and Ribbon
If you are not using Intermec media and ribbon, or you misplaced your
packaging with the three-digit sensitivity number label on it, you can set the
approximate sensitivity number. The first column of the Direct Thermal and
Thermal Transfer Media Sensitivity Settings tables list the approximate
sensitivity settings. To achieve acceptable print quality, enter the three-digit
media sensitivity number (for example, 800).
If you are unsure of how to set the media sensitivity number, start with the
highest setting, which provides the lowest energy (800 for thermal transfer and
700 for direct thermal), and work your way down until you achieve the best
print quality.
