Positioning The Media Sensors

Adhesive Label
(left edge)
Your printer is equipped with upper and lower media sensors that
detect the top-of-form position on media with label length indicators
(black marks, gaps, notches, or holes). These media sensors also
detect Paper Out conditions.
Use the handles on the lower media sensor to horizontally position
it so that the left edge of the sensor's visible red LED is aligned
under the left edge of the die cut label of the installed media.
The upper media sensor, located in the slot under the printhead
cover (see figure on page 27), should be located directly over the
lower media sensor.
