SPECIAL ADJUSTMENT OF PAPER ROLL SENSOR
Near-End Sensor for Paper Roll
The near-end sensor for paper roll in the printer is able to have the printer work
with a paper roll of several bobbin sizes. Please refer to the figure shown
above for the paper roll compartment in which there are a plastic thumb wheel
for bobbin-size adjustment, and a sensor block on the wall. Turn the thumb
wheel to adjust the proper position of sensor block. When the printer is placed
on a flat desk and the paper roll in the compartment is exhausted, the near-end
sensor block ejects and stays above the bobbin of paper roll and thus stays
active, as shown below.
.
Accordingly, when the printer is placed horizontally instead of being hanged
vertically on the wall, the printer’s near-end sensor block functions and the
sensor position adjust can be used by users for the activity of sensor block.
The outer diameter of paper roll bobbin is between 18 and 24 mm, which is
acceptable.
