its

and
turns on the
PAPER lamp.
The paper-end detector can be adjusted according the thickness of the paper.

How to adjust the paper-end detector
Roll paper may differ in spool size, so it may be necessary to adjust the paper-end
detector.
Use the specified thermal paper roll with a core inside diameter (d1) of 12 mm
and an outside diameter (d2) of 18 mm, or the specified thermal label paper
with a core inside diameter (d1) of 12 mm and an outside diameter (d2) of 22
mm.
The thickness of the spool can vary; use the table to determine the paper-end
detector adjustment.
