Label Stop Sensor (LSS) Position Adjustment
The label stop/black mark sensor (LSS) is a photoelectric sensor
that controls the printer’s media feed by detecting gaps between
labels, or slots or black marks in continuous stock, depending on
the printer’s setup in regard of media type (see “Label Stop
Sensor (LSS) Position Adjustment” on page 118). An obvious
prerequisite is that the LSS must be aligned with the gaps, slots,
or black marks. If using irregularly shaped labels, align the LSS
with the front tips of the labels.
The LSS can be moved laterally between five fixed positions.
There is one part of the sensor on top of the upper media guide
and another part underneath the lower guide. These must be
adjusted individually to the same position. Using a small
screwdriver, push them inwards as far as they go and then pull
them out—one at the time—while counting the clicks from the
snap-locks.
The various detection points of the sensor in relation to the inner
edge of the media are as follows:
LSS Detection points
One click out 3 mm 0.118 inches
Two clicks out 8 mm 0.315 inches
Three clicks out 12 mm 0.472 inches
Four clicks out 16 mm 0.639 inches
Five clicks out 20 mm 0.787 inches
