g) Multi sensor
The multi sensor attached to the lower left part of the carriage consists of four LEDs (red, blue, green, infrared) and two light-receiving sensors to detect the leading
edges and width of paper and skews in it, and to adjust its registration and head height.
The multi sensor standard has a white plate attached to it, so that a reference value can be calculated during carriage height measurement by measuring the intensity
of light reflected upon the white plate.
(Service mode: SERVICE MODE>ADJUST>GAP CALIB)
h) Rail cleaner
The shaft cleaner located in the right rear of the carriage helps keep the main rail clean.
i) Internal unit temperature sensor
One thermistor is installed on the head relay PCB on the back of the head holder to detect the internal unit temperature.
