Checking Media Settings
The dialog displays the following options for the paper currently loaded in the printer.
Selected Paper Type: The current paper type.
Remaining Setup: Displayed only with roll paper.
This item shows the option currently selected for Roll Paper Remaining.
When On is selected for Roll Paper Remaining, the printer tracks the following roll paper
data.
O Time until replacement
The following settings are recorded in a barcode printed on the roll: the amount of paper
remaining, the value selected for remaining alert, and the paper type.
The barcode is automatically printed at the end of the roll when the roll is rewound. The
barcode is automatically read and settings adjusted the next time the paper is used,
improving efficiency when multiple rolls of paper are used.
O The amount of paper remaining in the . tab info display area
The info display area shows the amount of paper remaining in the current roll. Once the
amount of paper remaining falls below the limit, the amount is replaced by a warning
indicator showing that paper is running low. See “Screen View” on page 17.
O Printing availability
The printer predicts whether the current job can be printed on the amount of paper
remaining and displays the results, preventing waste caused by the paper running out
part way through a print job. This allows you to choose whether to print on the existing
roll or replace the paper, preventing waste.
