Intro: Sensor Types
When making changes in this section, there are certain implications that need to be understood because
some menus are intimately related. For example, when the menu Sensors > Control > Gap/Mark Sensor is
changed, this has an effect on other menu defaults as shown in Table 2.

IMPORTANT When sensors settings are changed, the user must calibrate .

The available options specify the sensor type needed for detecting the
Top-of- Form position on media with label length indicators (gaps, notches,
holes, or black marks).
Select when using media with no label length
indicators (no gaps, notches, holes, or black marks), or
when you want the printer to ignore all existing label
length indicators on the installed media.
Select when using media that has horizontal black
marks located on the underside of the label liner,
notch, hole or tag stock. The Top-of-Form position is
the leading edge of the black mark.
The Top-of-Form position is the leading edge of the die
cut label (trailing edge of the gap, notch, or hole).
When you select Disable, the length of each label
is based on the Media > Image > Label Length
menu or the value sent within the application
format.
