Ensure the media sensors are horizontally positioned to permit
sensing of the label length indicators. See "Positioning the Media
Sensors" on page 54.
Ensure the Print Mode option selected in the QUICK SETUP menu
matches the media installed. Select "Direct" for heat sensitive media
(no ribbon required) or "Transfer" for thermal transfer media (ribbon
required).
If you try to do a Manual Calibrate when Peel-Off Media Handling is
