3.4.2 Media calibration
Media calibration ensures that the sensor can recognize the marks. OPOS is calibrated at the
factory to work on a wide range of media. However, certain media -- such as those with a high
gloss -- may not work with the default settings. Before working with such materials, perform a
media calibration test. This test will alter OPOS’s sensitivity so that it will read the marks with
greater reliability. Print a square measuring at least 4x4 cm on the used media. Make sure to
use the same ink than the one when creating the registration marks.
NOTE: If the media calibration is done and results didn’t improve, set the media
calibration value again to default.
Perform the media calibration:
1. Turn on the cutter and load the vinyl with the printed square.
