    Abstract: Disclosed is a media processing device, including a printing assembly located downstream of a media supply. The media supply includes media elements. The media processing device further includes a memory configured to store media profiles and an edge detection sensor configured to detect edges of the media elements. The edge detection sensor is located proximate to an upstream end of the printing assembly. The media processing device further includes a control circuit configured to receive a media profile, determine calibration data based on the media profile, feed a first media element through the printing assembly, determine a media element length based on the media profile, retract the first media element back through the printing assembly based on the media element length, and print on the first media element by way of the printing assembly.
