3.8 Paper Sensors
The printer has 2 paper sensors as follows:
1) Paper roll end sensor
The sensor which detects whether paper is present or not.
When the sensor detects a paper-end, the printer stops printing.
2) Paper roll near-end sensor
The sensor which detects a near-end of a paper roll.
When the paper roll diameter becomes sufficiently small, the detects a near-end of the paper roll
and the PAPER OUT LED lights. If the sens or is enabled by ESC c 4, the printer stops printing.
NOTE: After installing new paper roll, close the printer cover; then the printer restarts printing.
3.9 Cover Open Button
When the cover open button (located to the right of the cover) is pressed, the printer cover is opened.
When the cover is closed, the cover open button is latched.
NOTES: 1. Be sure to use the cover open button to open the printer cover.
2. Do not open the cover during printing.
3. Do not open the cover during auto-cutting operation; otherwise the mechanism may be
damaged.

printing, the error LED blinks and the printer stops printing. T he printer recovers when the cover is
closed. When the sensor detects a cover open while the printer is in the standby status, the printer
goes offline. The pr inter recovers when the cover is closed.

printer automatically prints the processed line and feeds the paper by one line (in standard mode).
