Paper Size Detection
Paper Size Detection
Paper size of the cassette can be automatically detected by adjusting the position of the guide plate.
Concavo-convex area of the cassette dial is switched when the guide plate is shifted and two Size Switches on a printer are switched.
Length and width are detected according to the ON / OFF combination of switches.
As long as standard paper, both AB type and inch type can be used.
However, size should be found manually on the check screen for the combination of A5-Rand STMT-R or the combination of B5-R and EXEC.

Also, the cassette presence is detected when the size switch is pushed.
(If no switch is pushed, it is determined as no cassette.)
Setting method when the size detection patterns are overlapped
ASize should be found manually on the check screen for the combination of A5-Rand STMT-R or the combination of B5-R and EXEC.
Specify the ecognition method for the special paper with user setting.
The setting size is indicated below.
