Adjusting and

Maintaining the Printer

This section details important adjustments, settings and periodic maintenance requirements that will ensure optimum printer performance.

4.0TOF Sensor Adjustment

The TOF Sensor in the printer has two functions: (1) sensing the presence of ticket stock and (2) when using reflective stock, sensing the Top of Form (TOF) Mark on each ticket. If the ticket stock does not contain TOF Marks, DPL programming must be used to set the ticket size.

To advance tickets correctly, the sensor must be positioned under the TOF Mark and within in a Quiet Zone (an area free of preprinted text or logos); see Section 6 for stock requirements.

þNote: Preprinted text and logos can cause false TOF readings.

Depending upon the printer model, the adjustment of the TOF Sensor differs slightly.
