Paper Low Sensor
The Epic 880TM has a Paper Low Sensor. This sensor is mounted to the paper
spindle and will provide an indication that the paper is getting low. The length of
paper remaining when paper low is sensed is dependent on the paper roll core
diameter.
Anti-Jam Sensor
An Anti-Jam Sensor is mounted to the knife frame, and senses the presence of a
ticket immediately before and after a knife cut. Under normal conditions, right after a
knife cut, a ticket is fed into the transport and presented to the customer. If a ticket is
not fed properly into the transport (for example, when a ticket jams) the Anti-Jam
Sensor detects the jammed ticket and stops printer operation.
Transport Ticket Taken Sensor
A Ticket Taken Sensor, mounted in the Ticket Transport, is used to detect the lead
edge of the ticket as well as determine when customers have actually taken the
printed ticket.
