RFID > RFID Calibrate
Initiate tag calibration for RFID media. (Not the same as media and ribbon calibration.) During
the process, the printer moves the media, calibrates the RFID tag position, and determines the
optimal settings for the RFID media being used. These settings include the programming
position, the antenna element to use, and the read/write power level to use. See the
RFID
Programming Guide 3
for more information.
NOTE: Before running this command, load the printer with RFID media, calibrate your
printer, close the printhead, and feed at least one label to make sure that tag calibration
will begin from the correct position.
Leave all transponders before and after the tag that is being calibrated. This allows the
printer to determine RFID settings which do not encode the adjacent tag. Allow a portion
of media to extend out the front of the printer to allow for backfeed during the tag
calibration procedure.
