NOTE: If the paper feed motor is driven counterclockwise, paper is fed in reverse.
2.3.5.3 Paper Feed Motor Software Control
This section describes the paper feed motor software control.
Software Control System
The speed and rotational direction of the paper feed motor are controlled by the printer firmware. Line
spacing is also controlled by the firmware. The minimum line spacing value that the user can set is
1/2 16 inch. The printer supports the following three speed modes for paper feeding.
