Agitation cam sensor
Head management sensor
Pump cam sensor
As the cam rotates, it shields the sensor light of the photointerrupter-based pump cam sensor or allows it to be transmitted. The status of the purge unit, such as
capped, suction and wiping, is detected by the combination of the pump cam sensor detection and the control of pump motor rotation by the pump encoder sensor.
