Running Manual Calibrate
Manual Calibrate should be performed only when the values derived from 
Auto Calibrate fail to improve the media sensors’ ability to sense label length 
indicators on the installed media. You must first enable Admin User in the 
PRINTER CONTROL menu before accessing or initializing Manual Calibrate 
in the CALIBRATE CTRL menu.
NOTE: Verify the Gap/Mark Sensor option (Gap, Mark, Advanced Gap, 
Advanced Notch, or Disable) matches the installed media. See 
“Sensing Different Media Types” on page 58.
