porting a number of special printing enhancements such as TALL, WIDE and
INVERSE, eleven different country character sets and a number of useful
graphics. Refer to Appendix E of the

Paper Detect
There is a paper detection device that prevents printing a transaction without
producing a printed receipt. When the paper sensor detects the lack of pa-
per, the printer completes the line it is currently printing, then stops any addi-
tional printing.
Refer to Section 3 of this manual for instructions on loading a paper roll and
ribbon cassette in the printer.
