Determining the MSN for Intermec-Approved Media and Ribbons

Determining the MSN for Other Media and Ribbons

EasyCoder PX4i User's Guide (IPL Version)
To determine an exact media sensitivity number, obtain the part
number of your media and/or ribbon and call 1-800-755-5505,
press 1 and then 1. The part number may be printed on the
outside of the box carton.
Both the thermal transfer media and ribbon have a sensitivity
number. To determine the MSN, combine the digits. Note that
"combine" does not mean "add".

If you are not using Intermec-approved media and ribbon, you
can still achieve good print quality by setting an approximate
media sensitivity number.
If your media is not listed in the table below, but a similar media
is, use the approximate sensitivity level listed in the first column
to achieve acceptable print quality. For example: 800, 700, 100.
If you cannot determine an approximate sensitivity level, start
with the highest setting (800 for thermal transfer and 700 for
direct thermal) and work your way down until you achieve
acceptable print quality. You can also use PrintSet's Print Quality
Wizard to help achieve acceptable print quality.
