Adjusting the Paper Near End Detectors The paper near end detectors detect when the paper is almost gone by measuring the diameter of the paper roll. Software programs can use the ESC c 4 command to stop printing when the paper is almost gone. If you want to change the amount of paper remaining when the printer stops printing, follow the steps below to adjust either paper near end detector. Note: The printer also has two paper end-sensors that stop the printer at the very end of a roll. These sensors cannot be turned off by software. 1. Open the printer cover and remove the paper roll. 2. Determine the point on the paper roll at which you want the paper roll end detection to be triggered. Then measure the distance A shown in the illustration. distance A Note: There may be some difference between the measured distance A and the actual sensing position. 1-26 Setting Up the Printer

Setting Up the Printer
Adjusting the Paper Near End Detectors
The paper near end detectors detect when the paper is almost gone
by measuring the diameter of the paper roll. Software programs
can use the
ESC c 4
command to stop printing when the paper is
almost gone.
If you want to change the amount of paper remaining when the
printer stops printing, follow the steps below to adjust either paper
near end detector.
Note:
The printer also has two paper end-sensors that stop the printer at
the very end of a roll. These sensors cannot be turned off by software.
1.
Open the printer cover and remove the paper roll.
2.
Determine the point on the paper roll at which you want the
paper roll end detection to be triggered. Then measure the
distance A shown in the illustration.
Note:
There may be some difference between the measured distance A and
the actual sensing position.
