CONFIDENTIAL
APPENDIX D: ADJUSTING THE PAPER ROLL NEAR-END
The remaining detectable amount of paper on the paper roll varies with the inside and outside
diameters of the paper core. The minimum detectable amount of paper on the paper roll can be
set using the following method:
1) The inside diameter of the paper spool should be 12mm (.47") and the outside diameter of
the paper spool should be 18mm (.71"). Specified thermal paper should be used.
2) Loosen the adjusting screw that holds the paper near-end sensor and set the top of the
positioning plate to the appropriate adjustment value and tighten the adjusting screw.
Adjust the positioning plate to #1 if the outside diameter of a paper roll to be used is 18mm.
Adjust the positioning plate to #2 if the outside diameter of a paper roll to be used is more
than 18 mm.
NOTES:
1) Since dimension A in the table is a calculated value, there may be some variations
depending on the printer.
2) Be sure that the adjustable slider operates smoothly after you finish the adjustment.
