Zebra G SERIES User Manual

MANUAL CALIBRATION
Manual calibration is recommended whenever you are
using pre-printed labels (or label backing) or if the printer
will not correctly auto-calibrate.
NOTE: If printing in Direct Thermal Mode, default the
printer first (four flashes).
1
Load the labels and ribbon (if used) and close
the printer.
2
Turn on the printer power.
3
Allow the printer to feed or error out.
4
Press and hold the Feed button until the green status
LED flashes once, then twice. Release the Feed button.
5
The printer will set the media sensor for the label
backing being used then automatically feed until a
label is positioned at the printhead. Upon completion,
the printer will save the new settings in memory and
the printer is ready for normal operation.
6
Press the Feed button. One entire blank label
will feed. If this does not happen, try defaulting
(hold the Feed button until it flashes four times).
NOTE: Performing a manual calibration disables the auto-
calibration function. If you use varying label lengths, you
can set the printer to measure the label length (using the
Zebra Driver or the ^MF command) or return to auto-
calibration by defaulting the printer. (To do this, hold the
Feed button until it flashes four times.)
TROUBLESHOOTING TESTS
Printing a configuration label
To print a listing of the printer’s current configuration,
follow these steps:
1
Make sure the media is properly loaded and the top
cover of the printer is closed. Then, turn the printer
power on if you have not already done so.
2
When the status light is solid green, press and hold
the Feed button until the status light flashes once.
3
Release the Feed button. The printer prints a
configuration report on the available media.
Refer to Figure A for a sample configuration.
If the printer has a 10/100 Ethernet option, a secondary
configuration report specific to the interface will be printed.
Refer to Figure B for a sample configuration.
