Adjusting the Label Gap Sensor

If you experience problems such as the printer skipping labels or the printer stopping
and the yellow LED flashing, you may need to adjust the label gap sensor. You are
most likely to experience any of these problems if you are using very narrow label stock

sensor from 0 to 1.0 inch from the inner edge of the printer.
Note: Intermec sets the label gap sensor to 0.5 inch from the inner edge of the printer at
the factory. You should be able to leave it in this position for most labels wider than 1.0

optimized for the label stock.
Here are some guidelines for you to follow:

If the labels are less than 1.0 inch wide, position the label gap sensor in the

the straight edge of the label (not over the label radius).
