Abstract
In one embodiment, a system and method pertain to measuring the length of media using a first sensing system of the printing device to obtain a first length value, measuring the length of the media using a second sensing system of the printing device to obtain a second length value, and calculating a scale factor that can be applied to measurements made by the first sensing system to increase the accuracy of those measurements, wherein the scale factor is calculated relative to the first and second length values.
