3-3 Adjusting the Paper Near-End Detector Location

The paper near-end detector

When the paper near-end detector senses that the paper is almost out, the printer turns on the PAPER LED. The PAPER LED also turns on when the paper is com- pletely out or paper roll is not installed.

Adjusting the paper near-end detector

Because the paper roll core size differs depending on the paper roll, you may need to adjust the paper near-end detector location.

Make sure the paper core inside diameter is 10.5 to 12.5 mm (0.41 to 0.49")

Determine the paper near-end detecting point on your roll paper and measure diameter A as shown below.

Find the corresponding adjustment position number from the table below.
