Printer
Quadnet control panels can have an optional printer fitted if required. This must be specified when ordering
a panel and cannot be fitted by the end user or installer as an after market addition. If the printer is fitted it
can be setup to print out local events as they occur. The engineer can configure during commissioning
which local events get printed (fires and/or faults and/or panel events).
Paper out
The printer will automatically detect when the printer paper has run out. The Status indicator LED will flash
repeatedly.
Fitting a new roll of paper
The paper used in the printer is Fike Part No 507-0016. No other paper should be used.
•
The printer paper can be accessed by lifting the front cover on the printer.
•
Use the paper feed button (located on the right hand side opposite the Status indicator LED) to feed
through the last few centimetres of paper.
•
Fit a new paper roll onto the carrier. The printer incorporates an automatic paper feed facility. With
a new paper roll mounted on the carrier and with a clean straight edge to the paper, present the
paper to the entry point behind the rubber roller. The paper will be sensed by the mechanism and
automatically feed through into a position ready for printing.
•
Use the paper feed button to feed more paper through if required.
