2.4. Switching the Printer On/Off
Switching the printer on/off can be only be done by switching on/off the power switch located on the
R230
cable distributor housing – see
. If the printer has been switched on properly, the
POWER
lamp emits green light continuously.
!
On switching the power supply off, protect the print head by following the steps specified below:
•
open the drain valve which is next to the ink bottle cap. Thanks to that the ink pressure drops to
zero. Then close the drain valve to protect ink solvent from evaporating,
•
rinse the plate and the nozzles with solvent.
2.5. Printer Communication with Controller – PC or
T200
Terminal
A PC (stationary or portable ) with Windows® 98SE / ME / NT / 2000 / XP / Vista®, or
T200
terminal is vital to controlling the
EBS-230
printer and the program servicing the
EBS-230
printer – (see
Minimum Recommended Hardware Requirements
). With the help of
these devices you may send texts for printing to the printer, save or read the printing parameters, print
configurations and initiate or halt the printing process, etc. The
EBS-230
communicates with
computer or
T200
via a cable.
Line Connection to Computer
The printer is generally connected to the computer via the
R230
cable distributor (marked
PC/TERM
) which links to the computer through a USB adapter to a USB port (or optionally through a
RS-232 adapter to a serial port). The adapter requires installation of controllers, therefore during the
first start-up, the controller initialisation program disc must be inserted into the disc drive. The
installation disc is not required for further connections. Installation of a controller adapter must
precede installation of the printer control program.
