Replacing the paper roll stops the buzzer sound and turns off the

PAPER OUT

LED. Also

pressing the

FEED

button stops the buzzer sound and turns off the

PAPER OUT

LED.

Be sure that the

PAPER OUT

LED goes off when the buzzer sounds is stopped.

For details of the status of the LEDs when a paper end is detected, see the following table:

See Appendix B for more details.

TM-U230 has

ESC(A

command, which can control the internal buzzer. With this command, TM-

U230 can beep the internal buzzer at the specified interval or beeps when the specified event
(paper near end, cover open, paper end, stop printing, recoverable error or unrecoverable error)
occured.

Note:

•

When the internal buzzer is disabled by

ESC(A

command, the

PAPER OUT

LED does not

light or blink, because the internal buzzer corresponds to the

PAPER OUT

LED.

•

The

PAPER OUT

LED blinks correspondingly when the internal buzzer is set to beep if

paper end is detected.

•

ESC(A

command setting is canceled when the power is turned off.

•

Refer to the

ESC(A

command description in TM-U230 series specification for more

details.

The printer status can be checked by commands such as

GS a

Receive Buffer

The selectable receive buffer size differs depending on the setting of DIP switch 1-2.
