The Paper Motion Sensor (PMS) detects any paper jam or unin-
tended paper end condition and provides efficient protection
against any paper transport problems together with the paper
end sensor. This prevents the printer from printing on jammed
paper or printing without paper. Disabling the PMS can affect
the operational reliability of your printer and should therefore
be avoided.
Confirm the setting by pressing the Set (1) key. Change to the next
parameter group with the Next key (4).
