3.6 Label Calibration and Self Test
Label Calibration
The printer can automatically detect and store label height.
That means the host computer does not need to transmit the label height to the printer.
Self Test
Self-test function lets you check whether the printer is functioning normally.
Here is how you run the label size calibration and self test.
1. Check that the label stock is loaded correctly.
2. Turn off the printer.
3. Turn the printer on again, keeping the FEED button pressed. When the LED starts to flash red, release the FEED
button. The printer will now measure the label stock and store the label height.
4. Once the printer has successfully measured the label stock, it will print a self-test label.
The contents of a self-test printout are listed below.
