Detection of the Remaining Roll Paper
If you have activated automatic detection of the remaining roll paper, when the roll is ejected, a barcode with text is
printed on the roll paper that identies the type of paper and amount left. If this function is activated and barcodes
are printed on the roll paper, the type of paper and amount left are automatically detected when you load a
roll. The barcode will be cut off after it has been read.
Note
•
If the document is not cut but kept in the printer, only the text message is printed. This is also the
case when printing on 8-inch rolls or clear lm.
Important
•
If the barcode is not detected when it is advanced, enter the type and length of paper on the Control
Panel.
