Paper motion monitoring and control
The ECU controls paper motion in the printer by continuously monitoring the two paper sensors and
coordinating the timing with the other print processes.
For a detailed explanation of paper movement and the interaction of the sensors and pickup solenoid
with the paper-movement process, see
Printer paper-feed system on page 56.
Motor
The ECU controls the motor. The motor drives all of the paper movement in the printer.
