Epson Scan 2500 service manual Smaller TRAILING-EDGE Margin, Method

EPSON Stylus Scan 2500 Revision A

SMALLER TRAILING-EDGE MARGIN

Like the Stylus COLOR 740, this model uses a new design to allow printing up to the last 3mm by changing the design and position of the star-wheel gear. The star-wheel gear assembly has been shifted 5 degrees from directly on top of the eject rollers towards the front paper guide. This change suppresses the tailing edge of the paper so that the old minimum margin of 14mm has been reduced to only 3mm.
