Cash register characteristics
Usage and storage of paper ribbons
Conditions for the proper storage of thermal paper rolls supplied by Elcom, with which the producer guarantees the
consistency of the printer output for at least 5 years and special ribbons of the type TC for minimally 12 years:
• room temperature of 18 to 25°C,
• relative air humidity of. 40 to 60% max,
• keep away from direct sunlight.
Among impacts limiting the consistency of the printer are:
• long exposure to temperatures over 40 °C,
• being kept in a damp or humid environment,
• contact with softening materials (stored in PVC folio), with solvents, mollifiers, glues, with carbon and self-
adhesive paper, direct sunlight.
When taping a report into an accounts book, only press tape at the end of the paper ribbon in order not to damage
the printed data. If proper storage conditions are not maintained or non-quality journal paper is used, Elcom cannot
guarantee the quality of printing.
If the red color stripe marking the ribbon end appears, change the paper ribbon immediately. Delay in changing
the paper roll can damage the printer or possibly shorten its lifespan.
USING A MEMORY CARD
The slot for the memory card is located in the space for the cash register ribbon spool (see Fig. 2.8). For
access to the memory card it is necessary to open the printer cover and lift the printer head. The Euro-150TE/
TX Flexy cash register supports work with memory cards of the SD type (up to a capacity of 2 GB) and SDHC
(the Elcom company does not guarantee functionality of the cash register with cards of the micro and mini
SD type). At present it is possible to use the memory card for the export and import PLU databases, DPT,
cashiers, text and graphic logos and storage of electronic journals (see the chapter „Export and Import“).
