Gap Sensors
Figure 15
Selecting the gap sensor
The printer has two gap sensors (1, 2) to detect the labels front edge as well as the end of the material, which can
be used alternatively. The emitters (1a, 2a) are located in the print module, the detectors (1b, 2b) in the transport
module.
The gap sensor (1) is used as default. This is suitable for use with single and multi-lane labels with an odd number of
lanes.
When using multi-lane labels with an even number of lanes, e.g. two or four lanes, one has to switch manually to the
gap sensor (2).
Open the cover, release and lower the control panel, press the release button and raise the print module.
Set the switch (3) as required:
for gap sensor (1) - move switch to setting "1" (default),
for gap sensor (2) - move switch to setting "2".
Lower the print module, locking into place, lift the control panel and close the cover.

Note!
The gap sensors cannot be selected via software.
Reflex Sensor
4.4.2
Positioning the reflex sensor
Figure 16
The reflex sensor (1) can detect marks on the back of the label stock. To adapt the sensor to the position of the
reflective marks it can be moved perpendicular to the transport direction with the slide (2):
Determine the distance of the reflective marks from the center of the material.
Move the slider (2) to the desired position with a sharp tool if required.
The distance of the sensor from the center is shown on the scale.
