Symptom
PRINTER OPERATION
Advances several labels
when Feed key is pressed.
Solution/Explanation
1. Check that labels are loaded correctly. (See "Loading Roll
Media" on page 25.)
2. Check that the Label Length (in the MEDIA SETUP menu,
or sent by the host computer) agrees with the length of the
media installed. Although gaps, holes, notches, or black
marks are used to establish the Top-of-Form position, a
larger page length will override the gap and skip a page or
more if Clip Page (in the MEDIA SETUP menu) is set to
Disable. Set Page Length to match the media being used.
3. Check that the printer is optimized to detect the type of
media installed. Perform Auto Calibrate for gapped and
black mark media. (See "Running Auto Calibrate" on
page 47.)
4. Adjust the media sensor horizontally to detect gaps, holes,
notches, or narrow width black marks. (See "Positioning
the Media Sensors" on page 44.)
5. If the problem persists, run the Media Profile printout to
see if the label length indicators are being sensed.
6. Run Manual Calibrate. (See "Running Manual Calibrate"
on page 50.)
