A photo reflective type multi sensor consists of three red LEDs, one red/blue/green LED array, and three light receiving sensors and is used for media end, skew,

and width adjustment, registration adjustment, head height adjustment, and print position adjustment.

The multi sensor reference has three white plates attached to it, so that a reference value can be calculated during carriage height measurement by measuring the

intensity of light reflected upon the white plates.
