AMS01 (Printing Assurance 1)
Selector 1: Prevention of stains on back side of leading edge of paper in
borderless printing
Setting this selector to "1" reduces the protruding amount of the leading edge of recording
paper to the platen groove to minimize stains that could be caused by ink mist on the back side
of the leading edge. Enabling this function increases the throughput rather than disabling it.
Selectors 3 and 4: Protection of platen from no-paper printing to prevent stains
(Functional restriction on the paper width sensor)
The setting made by these selectors applies to such printing that is assumed to be at a high
resolution, that is, printing from a PC or memory card, copying, and printing via PictBridge.
If these selectors are set to "0, 0", the machine automatically determines the functions of the
paper width sensor depending upon the print resolution selected. Therefore, in low resolution
printing, e.g. when the "Fast" print quality is selected, the paper width sensor is automatically
disabled. On the contrary, in high resolution printing, e.g. when the "Highest" print quality is
selected, the sensor is automatically enabled.
Setting these selectors to "1, 1" disables the paper width sensor.
