Adjusting the Roll Paper Near-End Sensor
Adjust the roll paper near-end sensor in the following situations:
 To adjust the detection position according to the thickness of the roll paper core that is used
 To adjust the detection position for remaining roll paper amount
Use the following procedure to adjust the roll paper near-end sensor.
1
Open the Roll paper cover, and remove the roll paper.
2
Loosen the adjustment screw fastening the sensor.
3
Set the position of the sensor by moving the its tab.
 The near end cannot be detected precisely, because the core shape varies slightly with each roll
paper.
 In order for the roll paper near-end sensor to correctly detect the amount of paper remaining,
use roll paper with an inner core diameter of 10 mm {0.39"} or larger.
 If the roll paper is loose due to the paper quality, false detections could occur.
The remaining roll paper amount will change depending on the slit location on the tab.
