2.PRINTER SETUP ENGLISH VERSION EO1-33058 2.13 Threshold Setting 2.13 Threshold Setting To maintain a constant print position the printer uses the media sensor to detect a print start position according to the difference of voltage between a print area and a gap or black mark. When the media is pre-printed, the darker (or more dense) inks can interfere with this process causing paper jam errors. To get around this problem, first, try an automatic threshold setting.

Manual threshold setting procedure If a paper jam error still occurs even after an automatic threshold setting has been performed, manually set the threshold voltage. To make a threshold value manually set in this section effective, select the Transmissive Sensor (when using manual threshold value) or Reflective Sensor (when using manual threshold value) within software commands or the printer driver. 1.
