The feed gap sensor detects a label gap to locate the starting print position of the next
label. The sensor is mounted 4 mm off the center line of the main mechanism.

.
In case of Label

Black Mark Sensor

The black mark sensor locates the position of label by emitting infrared rays onto
the black mark at the back of the ticket. The sensor is mounted 5.75 mm off the
center line of the ticket roll width on the mechanism.

In case of Ticket

The default sensor position is (1) as shown on the figure below. To change to the
(2) position, the customer should notify the manufacturer in advance. There can
be only one position for the sensor. Once the sensor position is agreed upon, it
can not be changed afterwards.

Ribbon End Sensor

The sensor detects the end portion of the ribbon. The ribbon end must be transparent.

Label End Sensor

The sensor detects the end portion of the label.

Peel off Sensor

The sensor detects the backing paper of a label.

Ribbon encoder

The encoder is used to detect if the ribbon is broken.
