3.8 Paper Detectors
The printer has the following paper detectors:
Paper roll end detector
Paper roll near-end detector (Optional)
3.8.1 Detectors and LED indicators
(1) Roll paper end detector
This detector is located in the roll paper path. This detector detects paper out. When the
paper out is detected, the PAPER OUT LED lights.
(2) Paper roll near-end detector (optional)
This sensor is installed on the paper roll supply device. It detects a paper near-end by
monitoring the paper roll diameter. The PAPER OUT LED lights when the paper roll
diameter becomes sufficiently small.
3.8.2 Detectors and printing
When the printer detects a paper-end, it stops or continues printing, depending on the ESC c
4 command setting. The roll paper detector always halts printing when there is no paper.
3.9 Buffer-full Printing
When subsequent data is received after the printer processes one line of data in the print buffer,
the printer automatically prints the processed line and feeds the paper by one line.
