printable area of the paper and stores the width measured in this process. The
measuring process varies, depending on the paper source selected.
The measurement is made
► after power-on and before the first print job;
► after paper end and before the subsequent print job; after
► changing the paper source (e.g. from Tractor 1 to Tractor 2).
When you submit a print job which exceeds the paper width, the following
message appears in the display:
The print job is stopped at the measured paper-end
position after printing the first line.
You can now either cancel the print job or load suitable
paper. In the latter case, the printer will resume the print
job upon pressing the Online key.
If you press the Online key without having changed the paper, another line
is printed until reaching the measured paper-end position.
The sensor interprets dark areas with a width of 13 mm or more as the
right-hand paper edge.
If the sensor does not detect any black area, the maximum possible
printing width is used as the printable area.
If there is a sensor malfunction (e.g. because of dirt, a defect or
misinterpretation of the paper width) it is necessary to deactivate the APW
function (APW=Off), since otherwise the printout will be too narrow or there
will be no printout at all. In this case contact your service technician.
Confirm the setting by pressing the Set (1) key.
Automatic detection of the top paper margin (AED)
This menu option only appears, if a cut device is installed. It corrects possible

Select the AED (3) menu.
Setting options: On/Off

Confirm the setting by pressing the Set (1) key. Change to
