Printer Commands
^A ^D COMMAND
X 165 Set the Reflective Dot2Gap Value:
This is the distance of the reflective sensor, which detects blackline
registration marks, to the dot row. This distance is set at the factory and is
typically not needed to be changed. The reflective Dot2gap distances
represent the physical characteristics of the printer models.

5.4.5 Auto-size Commands
The auto-size command attempts to automatically calculate important format values for the
label header including LSY, GAP, AGD, SPG, ^D90, and the ^D91 values. The printer
feeds a sample of labels through the GAP sensors and takes an average of the values it
receives. The auto-size command uses the appropriate sensors to detect the registration
marks set by the ^D47 command. Before issuing the auto-size command, verify that the
^D47 is set to the proper setting for the media being used.
When using media that contains a blackline for the registration mark, first execute the
^A1^D47<CR> command sequence before issuing the auto-size command or the results
may be invalid.
When using media that contains a blow-hole, set software switch #4 (^D24 command) for
blow-hole detection and then issue the desired auto-size command before issuing the auto-
size command or the results may be invalid.
^A ^D COMMAND
X 39 Auto-size:
0 Clears the use of auto-size values set by issuing the ^A1^D39<CR>.
1 Uses the values obtained for header variables instead of what is specified in
the format file's header.
2 Automatically sizes the label and displays to the terminal screen the values for
the format header.
3 Same as ^A2^D39<CR>, but the values will be printed on the media.
