NovaJet 500/630/700 Series Service Manual

The paper sensor circuitry senses for the presence of loaded media. It does this automatically during the start-up and load sequences. It also constantly monitors the media during printing to determine if the media has run out.

If no paper is sensed, the paper sensor sends this information to the MPWA, which immediately begins an ‘out of paper’ subroutine. This subroutine stops the printer from printing until more media is loaded.

The sensor also checks for the size of the media loaded so it can deter- mine the proper printing parameters.

Control Panel

The Control Panel is located on the right side of the printer and consists of 8 variable-action control buttons and an LCD graphics display. The control buttons are assigned to different functions and are dependant upon the selections that were previously selected. There are four buttons on the left of the display and four buttons on the right, with the display showing up to eight possible selections.
