Theory of Operation
Exit positioning
After completing the three (or four) printing passes, the thermal head is raised to
its standby position. The pinch roller is also moved back to its standby position.
Then the paper advances in the paper path to a position that places the trailing
edge of the print at the beginning of the exit path.
