Disabling Detection of the Edges of the Media

You can set up transparent media by disabling detection of the leading and trailing edges of the media.

Normally, detecting the leading and trailing edges of the media enables you to verify the presence of the media, and the media is then ready for setup. However, since transparent media cannot be detected, setup will not be possible. Disabling detection of the edges of the media will prevent media skewing correction support during setup from being performed even if media skewing correction support is enabled. Use the following procedure to determine the positions of the media during its setup.

    MEMO

    • Default setting: "ENABLE"

    • When set to "DISABLE", printing operation does not stop when the media runs out. If media runs out while printing is in progress, immediately press [PAUSE] to stop printing. Otherwise, there is a chance that the platen or other parts may become soiled by ink or that ink may get inside and damage the machine.
