Body | Manually Set the IP Printer Media SensorIn certain situations it may be necessary to manually configure sensor settings on the printer display or in the driver.
Note: Starting with firmware version 3.35, the sensor is automatically set by the RFID chip on the roll. This will override any manual settings in the printer or driver settings. These steps will not apply if you have firmware version 3.35 or newer and your media has an RFID chip. Removing the media's RFID chip will allow these user configurations to persist. This will disable media remaining functionality, sending media information to the software, and confirming ribbon/media compatibility.

If using 3rd party software, the driver may need to be manually adjusted. See this article for more information on this topic: Driver Page Size Settings for Brady Software vs 3rd Party Software
