      Calibrate Your Printer from the Web Portal

      Please calibrate your printer when loading new labels into your printer, or if you experience voids or shifting.

      RF printers require two calibrations be completed, which include Media & Ribbon, and RFID. 

      Please make sure that your printer is unpaused before continuing.

      To calibrate your printer, first navigate to the Simple RFID Web Portal and log in.

      • Click the Available Printers icon at the top-right of the page.

      • Locate the desired print station and click the Calibrate icon to the right.

      • Finally, click Calibrate to start the calibration process.

      • Accepting this prompt will then send both the media and ribbon and RFID calibrations to the printer, which will proceed automatically with the following steps:
        • Media and Ribbon.
        • Then a pause for roughly 10 seconds.
        • And then the RF calibration, which will take longer; the labels will periodically inch out of the printer for approximately one minute. At the end of the process it will feed out 2 or 3 labels before stopping completely.
      • After the calibration has completed:
        • Open the printer and roll back the labels so the blank tags may be used—precision is not necessary
        • Un-pause the printer
        • Now you are ready to print

      If you continue to have voids after calibrating your printer please reset your printer to factory defaults, and then recalibrate.

      You may also execute these calibrations directly from the printer as well. Below are links to the tutorials for each printer model:
