PAPER DETECTOR

The printer has a built-in paper detector (reflection type photo interruptor) to detect whether paper is

present or not.

An external circuit should be designed so that it detects output from the paper detector and does not

activate the thermal head and motor when there is no paper. Doing not so may cause damage to the

thermal head or platen roller or shorten the life of the head significantly. If the motor is drived when it is

out-of paper, a load is put on the reduction gear and the life of the gear may be shortened.
