Paper size detection
• The size of the paper is detected by the combination of ON or OFF positions of three
multi FD size sensors and the bypass paper width detection resistor.
• Moving the paper guide varies the resistance value of the bypass paper width detection
resistor.
Metric area
*: One of the following paper sizes can be selected to be set for FLS.
220 x 330 mm, 8 × 13, 8.125 × 13.25, 8.25 × 13, 8.5 × 13
