Function

"PF" stands for "Paper Feed." This sensor is part of the media handling system. It works in conjunction with a timing disc or strip to measure the precise movement of the media as it is fed through the printer. This ensures that the printer advances the material at the correct speed and distance between each pass of the printhead, which is crucial for preventing banding and producing clear, accurate prints.

Common Issues / Symptoms

• Incorrect media advancement: The printer may feed the material too quickly or too slowly.
• Banding: Horizontal lines or stripes may appear due to inconsistent ink application.
• Media feed errors: The printer may stop and display an error related to paper or media feed.
