When to Replace Media

The printer has a paper end detection function that detects when the media runs out.
When the printer detects paper end, an icon and an error message are shown on the printer's screen.
The conditions that trigger paper end vary depending on the operation of the printer.
Conditions That Trigger Paper End in the Feeding Operation
A paper end error occurs while paper is being fed when the paper end sensor detects there is no
paper and continues to detect no paper for 15 mm (0.59") of continuous feeding.
(1) Print head position
(2) Paper end sensor: I-mark sensor/Gap sensor
Select in [Printing] > [Advanced] > [Paper End] menu, or specify by command.
(3) Media feed direction
Conditions That Trigger Paper End in the Printing Operation
1. The paper end sensor detects a no-paper condition at the position where 15 mm (0.59") has been
fed.
2. If the amount of printing remaining is less than the distance between the print head position and
paper end sensor -15 mm (-0.59"), a paper end error occurs after completing the output of 1.
If the amount of media remaining is more than the distance between the print head position and
paper end sensor -15 mm (-0.59"), a paper end error occurs right after detecting the paper end,
and the printer will reprint after clearing the paper end error.
