3.12 TOF Sensor
The TOF Sensor is used to detect when media is present and is used in conjunction with the
Top-Of-Form operation. A TOF is when the printer uses the sensor to detect the edge of
the media and retracts the configured distance. See the D121 and D123 commands for
more details regarding the TOF operation.
A potentiometer adjusts the distance over which the LPD sensor will detect reflections. The
maximum range may be adjusted over a distance of 0.20" to 0.85". Distances are
measured from the surface of the sensor to the reflecting surface. The sensor is set to the
maximum detection at the factory. This pot may be used to decrease sensor range to avoid
false reflections from stationary objects such as a cutter.
