Media Sensor Profile (Figures 5 and 6)
The line labeled MEDIA (1) on the sensor profile indicates the media sensor readings. The
media sensor threshold settings is indicated by WEB (2). The media out threshold is
indicated by OUT (3).The upward spikes (4) indicate gaps between labels (the web), the
lines between the spikes (5) indicate where labels are located, and the numbered line at
the top (6) provides measurement in dots from the start of the printout.
If you compare the sensor profile printout to a length of your media, the spikes should be
the same distance apart as the gaps on the media. If the distances are not the same, the
printer may be having difficulty determining where the gaps are located.
