3-4 Thermal Mechanism Module

3-4-1 Thermal Head

(1) Thermal Element Configuration:
(2) Number of Thermal Elements:
(3) Thermal Element Scanning Density:
(4) Average Resistance Value:
(5) Drive Power Voltage:

3-4-2 Auto-cutter

(1) Cutter Type:
(2) Paper Cut States:
Note 1) The presenter model is standardly equipped with this type of cutter. It does not perform partial
cuts.
(3) Cut Duty:
Note 1) The auto-cutter life will notable shorten if it is not used within the above range.
(4) Cutter Position:

3-4-3 Paper Feed Motor

(1) Format:
(2) Drive Voltage:

3-4-4 Sensors

(1) Head Temperature Detection:
(2) Paper Out Detection:
(3) Platen Position Detection:
(4) Cutter Home Position Detection:
Note 1) A reflective photo-interrupter is used for the paper out sensor, so it can also be used as a
black mark sensor.
In such cases, some restrictions exist for black mark pitch detection.
