5.4 Threshold Setting 
E5- 4 
5.4 Threshold Setting 
 To maintain a constant print position the printer uses the Transmissive 
Sensor to detect the gap between labels by measuring the amount of 
light passing through the media.  When the media is pre-printed, the 
darker (or more dense) inks can interfere with this process causing 
paper jam errors.  To get around this problem a minimum threshold can 
be set for the sensor in the following way.
