glossy film, or overhead transparency) and switches to the correct print mode. The DC controller determines a media mismatch error and notifies the formatter under the following condition:

Simplex printing

The specified print mode is overhead transparency (OHT), but the media sensor detects another paper type.

The specified print mode is not auto or OHT, but the media sensor detects OHT.

Duplex printing

The media sensor detects OHT.

The DC controller flashes the media sensor during the initial rotation period under the following conditions:

The product is turned on

The product exits Sleep mode

When the light intensity is not a specified value, the DC controller determines a media-sensor failure and notifies the formatter.

Feed speed control

For the best print quality, the product adjusts the feed speed depending on the paper type.
