position of sensor head. The acceptable paper roll bobbin outer diameter is
between 18 and 22mm. This adjustment allows sensor activation on paper roll
overall diameter between 21 and 23.6 mm unless for too light bobbins.
Remember, for smaller roll diameter, the sensor head should go higher.
Paper Roll Replacement
When the paper roll
to put (back) in is already
nearly used up, the paper roll
must be placed in the way that
the paper roll touches the
sensor head from the outer
surface but never allow the
sensor head to ride on the
bobbin body between the inner and outer diameter of the paper roll bobbin nor
to go into the inner diameter of the paper roll bobbin. It is also noticed that
some market available paper roll has extremely light bobbin, easily causing the
paper roll to go off position when paper feeding with low remaining paper. In
this case, the paper near end sensor may function abnormally and it would be a
good solution to set in the setup window to have the printer to send busy only
when input buffer is full and not based on every off line signal.
Spacer Plate
If the paper roll is of width less than the standard 80 / 58 mm, it may
run away from the paper near end sensor during application resulting in an
error status. In this case, please stick the spacer plate to the wall opposite to the
paper near end sensor in the paper roll compartment. Each spacer plate
compensates 1 mm paper roll width shortage. There will be 1 spacer plate in
the accessory of the printer. If the user uses narrower paper roll and requires
more spacer plates, it can be purchased from Posiflex.
Paper Cutting
The paper advance after a protective cut is set to 12 mm. In case the
user uses direct cut instead of protective cut to have something like a logo
printed on top of each slip, it is also highly suggested to print the logo and
necessary paper feeding to make 12 mm paper advance right after each cut to
prevent curling up and jamming of paper front edge inside the paper exit slot.
Wall Mount Application
In wall mount application, the paper near end sensor will not work
properly and it is suggested to set in the setup window to have the printer to
send busy only when input buffer is full and not based on every off line signal.
