Printer Sensor Functions
There are six primary sensor functions on the printer. These sensors work with the game
firmware to provide reliable trouble-free operation. Any error conditions resulting from these
sensors are indicated by the front bezel light and keypad LEDs.
Table 2-3 describes each of these sensors.

Sensor
Description
Paper Out
The Paper Out sensor is located in the print head. It terminates the print operation
when the paper has run out and checks for proper form registration. The printer
ceases printing and feeding operations when it detects a Paper Out condition. Correct
a Paper Out condition by loading more paper into the unit.
Paper Low
The Paper Low sensor is located in the paper well. It determines when the paper stack
has approximately 14 tickets remaining. The paper_low status reports a paper low
condition after the unit has printed out 10 more print jobs. The true condition of the
paper_low status can be check by recycle the power. A Paper Low condition
automatically resets once a stack with a greater height is loaded. Paper low sensing
occurs when the system is idle and takes a few seconds to detect the new paper level.
Paper Taken
The Paper Taken sensor is located in the presentation chute of the printer. It
determines when the customer has actually taken their cashout ticket.
