To manually feed paper, the user must insert the paper into the manual feed slot
until the paper end sensor detects it. In the manual paper feed mode, the pick-up
guide changes its position for the paper to pass through a different path from that in
which the auto-sheet feeder is used. As a result, manual paper feed mode is
possible even when the auto-sheet feeder is loaded with paper. When the paper
pushed in to the paper feed section is detected by the paper end sensor, it will be fed
to the print start position.
b) Paper feed unit
The printing unit clamps the paper on the platen between the pressure roller/paper
feed roller and the spurs/eject roller to provide a constant clearance between the
head and the paper. Control of paper feeding during printing is performed by
controlling the turning of the high precision ceramic-coated metal paper feed roller.
Paper is fed in steps of 1/720 inch.
c) Paper eject unit
The printed paper is ejected by the eject roller with its face clamped on the roller by
sharp toothed spurs. The paper eject unit consists of the eject roller and the spurs.
A cut sheet fed to the print start position will be printed at the platen. The cut sheet
is fed by the turning of the paper feed roller and pinch roller, and, after being
printed, will be ejected by the eject roller and spurs.
