1.3.8 Panel Operation for Roll Paper Printing
PANEL OPERATION IN ROLL PAPER MODE
(WITHOUT CUTTER, TEAR-OFF LINE PRINTING)
To shift to the paper roll mode, use the roll paper mode selection command of the
remote commands.
The following indicates the basic panel operating procedure for printing on roll paper.
*a : If power is switched off at this point, the panel feeding status is stored onto
the EEPROM. When power is switched on again, the printer does not eject
paper. The operation in Step 2. and later can be performed.
*b : If power is switched off at this point, the roll paper mode status is stored onto
the EEPROM. When power is switched on again, the printer does not eject
paper. The operation in Step 3. and later can be performed.
*c : If power is switched off at this point, the roll paper mode status is stored onto
the EEPROM. When power is switched on again, the printer does not eject
paper. The operation that follows can be performed.
*d : If power is switched off at this point, the roll paper mode is canceled and the
panel feeding cancel is stored. When power is switched on again next, the
printer enters the normal mode.
Operating procedure
1. Insert roll paper from the roll paper
guide.
With the Paper detection sensor on
for 2 seconds, the roll paper is fed
automatically. After the roll paper
is fed, the operation with the Paper
switch is masked.
2. Receive the roll paper data and
perform printing until the end of the
job. After the printing is over, the
printer does not eject paper and
enters the switch waiting status.
If consecutive print jobs come, the
CR stops at the end of the last job,
and the printer does not eject the
paper and enters the switch
waiting status. At this time there
are no print margins between the
jobs.
3. Press the Roll paper switch to
execute Tear Off (with tear-off
line).
If the next print jog comes at this
point, the printer does not print and
waits for return from Tear Off.
4. Cut off the paper along the tear-off
line.
5. Press the Roll paper switch to
execute return from Tear Off.
If there is a next print job, the
printer prints and Steps 2. to 5. are
repeated.
6. Press the Roll paper switch for 3
seconds to back out the paper.
