(5) Slit sensor (Transmissive sensor) 
This sensor detects the rotation count of the ribbon shaft and the ribbon motors. The ribbon 
motors torque works to take up slack in the ribbon and is dependent on the detected count.  
The slit sensor is a photo coupler combining an LED and a transistor.

(7) Rewind full sensor (Transmissive sensor)  
This sensor detects that the built-in rewinder is full when winding backing paper or printed 
media onto the take-up spool.  It is positioned at 316.4 mm (Tr side) and 272 mm (LED side) 
from the platen.  A rewinder full status is detected when the backing paper blocks the light from 
the LED.
