Detection of the Remaining Roll Paper

If you have activated automatic detection of the remaining roll paper, when the roll is ejected, a barcode with text is printed on the roll paper that identies the type of paper and amount left. If this function is activated and barcodes are printed on the roll paper, the type of paper and amount left are automatically detected when you load a roll. The barcode will be cut off after it has been read.

Note

If the document is not cut but kept in the printer, only the text message is printed. This is also the case when printing on 8-inch rolls or clear lm.

Important

If the barcode on the roll is not detected, enter the type and length of paper on the Control Panel.
