The “web” or “gap” sensor, also known as the “transmissive sensor,” detects the gap or hole/
notch between labels.
The transmissive sensor consists of two sections: a light source (the lower media sensor) and
a light sensor (the upper media sensor). The media passes between the two.
The upper media sensor must be positioned:
• Directly over the hole or notch, or
• Anywhere along the width of the media if there is a gap between labels.
The lower media sensor must be positioned directly below the upper media sensor.
NOTE: If you are using continuous media, position the upper media sensor over
the media with the lower media sensor directly below so that the printer
can detect an out-of-paper condition. See Figure 2-24.

Refer to Figure 2-25 and use the following procedure to adjust the upper media sensor.
NOTE: For clarity, not all printer parts are shown.
1. Remove the ribbon, if installed.
2. Locate the upper media sensor. The upper media sensor “eye” is directly below the
adjustment screw head.
3. Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the upper media sensor adjustment screw about
one-half turn.
4. Using the tip of the screwdriver, slide the upper media sensor along the slot to the
desired position.
