Ribbon End - SATO CG4 Series Operator's Manual

8.7.2 Fanfold Label End
The printer behavior when paper end is detected is as follows:
• After printing and feeding label (2) 50mm (2"), "Paper end error" will occur.
• If an error occurs while printing, label (2) will be printed again after releasing the error. If the print job is
completed at the time of error occurrence, label (2) will not be printed again. (Also, when the print job is
completed while feeding the label 50mm (2"), the label will not be reprinted.)
• In cutter mode, cutting motion will not occur when the printer has a "Paper end error."
Note:
The paper end detection is performed by the I-Mark sensor, therefore, the above motion may not occur
depending on the adjustment of the I-Mark sensor.

8.8 RIBBON END

Ribbon End detection is only available for CG408TT and CG412TT printers.
Printer behavior when ribbon near end is detected is as follows:
• Ribbon near end can be detected by setting printing method to thermal transfer.
• When the ribbon remaining becomes 5 to 7m (16.4 ft. to 22.9 ft.), "Ribbon near end" will be detected.
The status of ribbon near end will be returned if status request (ENQ) is made.
