Confidential Ver. Ex.1.1 2003/7/8 P2 = Load Position At this position, the gap between platen roller & TPH is not as large as P1. But still has gap to enable ribbon scrolling through the gap. The pinch roller touches capstan roller to enable paper loading. P3 = Print Position Platen roller close to TPH, paper unmovable.
Confidential Ver. Ex.1.1 2003/7/8 3.1.5.3 Leading Edge Sensor It’s used to detect the status of paper. Leading Edge will be on when it detects paper loading; Leading Edge will be off when it doesn’t detect paper loading. Fig 9. Leading Edge Sensor 3.1.5.4 Jam Sensor It’s used to detect the status of paper.

Ribbon Sensor 3.1.6 TPH 3.1.6.1 Specification TPH(Thermal Print Head) is the key component for D2T2 printer, like the inkjet printing head for inkjet printer. Print data will be shifted into TPH during each clock. After 384 shift clocks, one line data will be shifted to TPH. Latch/ signal will latch the print data.
Confidential Ver. Ex.1.1 2003/7/8 Fig 20. TPH (Front View) 3.1.7 Motor 3.1.7.1 Cam motor Cam motor is a unipolar motor. It’s driven by driver IC “ULN2003”. ULN2003 has high voltage and high current Darlington arrays. Therefore, it can support continuous load of current rating to 500 mA. Fig 21.
Confidential Ver. Ex.1.1 2003/7/8 3.1.7.2 Capstan motor Capstan motor is a bipolar motor. It’s driven by driver IC “L6219”. L6219 is designed to operate both windings of bipolar stepping motor. It supports Pulse-Width-Modulation (PWM) control of output current to 750 mA. For PWM control, the maximum output current is determined by user’s selection of a reference voltage and sensing resister.
