GAP [X.XXV]

INPUT [X.XV]

The M-84PRO printers determine the location of the leading

edge of the label by measuring the difference between light

levels when it sees either a label edge or a black “EYE” mark.

This adjustment allows you to manually set the threshold voltage

level, between the maximum and minimum light levels. DIP

switch DSW2-2 selects the sensor type. If DSW2-2 is in the OFF

position, the setting will be for a See-Thru (or Gap) sensor and

the LCD will display “GAP” on the top line along with the current

setting. If DSW2-2 is in the ON position, the LCD will display

“EYE” on the top line with its current setting. If the value entered

for the bottom line setting is “0.0V”, then the printer will

automatically calculate the setting when the first label is fed after

the printer is powered on or the head is closed. There are some

instances where the automatically calculated value must be

adjusted to ensure reliable label feeding, such as when the

backing opacity or the reflectance of the EYE mark varies

significantly within a roll of labels or between label rolls. In these

instances the value should be set using the following

procedures.
