Media sensitivity number: This illustration shows you where to find the media
sensitivity number. Note that some ribbon rolls have the media sensitivity number
printed inside of the core.
Use this three-digit number to optimize print quality and print speed on
your printer. You can achieve the best print quality on the printer by using
only Intermec ribbon and media products. The default sensitivity setting
for thermal transfer media is 567. For direct thermal media, the default
sensitivity setting is 470.
