(2) Remove the thermal paper from the paper holder.
Adjustment of Paper-near-end Sensor
The detection value of paper-near-end can be changed according to the following procedure.
Set the paper-near-end sensor in accordance with the location of the printer.
The detection value is set to approx. 22
±2 mm in diameter at the shipping (Position A for Top paper eject
models, Position C for Front paper eject models).
NOTE
◆
Use the detection value of paper-near-end as reference.
