Paper roll Paper sensor commands ESC c 4
Ver. 10.01 p. 164
■ The roll paper end sensor is enabled when either bit 2 or bit 3 is on or both are on.
■ When a paper near-end is detected, printing stops after printing the current line and feeding the paper.
The printer goes offline and Paper LED comes on after printing stops. To resume printing, cancel the “roll
paper near-end” status by replacing the roll paper.
■ If the roll paper near-end sensor is disabled and a paper near-end is detected, printing does not stop and
the printer does not go offline, but the Paper LED does come on.
■ When a roll paper end is detected, the printer performs the same operations as when a roll paper near-end
is detected.
■ The settings of this command are effective until ESC @ is executed, the printer is reset, or the power is
turned off.
