Printing
1. Cancel Print key: Press to cancel print request.
NOTE
This is only an example of a printer. In other models, the
key may be located elsewhere.
A laser printer may be connected to the monitor via network, or to a central station on
the network. A bedside printer may be directly connected to the monitor’s network
port with a crossover cable or via a network hub.
NOTE
A laser printer manages multiple laser printouts at a time
by queuing them. If one printout is being processed and
another is initiated for the same laser printer, the second
printout will be queued and printed after the first one. An
exception is continuous printing. If waveforms are being
printed continuously (max. duration 5 minutes) and another
printout is initiated for the same laser printer, continuous
printing is stopped and the second printout is printed. After
the second printout is finished, the continuous waveform
printing is restarted.
NOTE
When a print job is canceled from the monitor, no more data
is sent to the printer. However, the printer will finish printing all
the data it had received before the stop/cancel request
Recorders
NOTE
Recorders print on thermal paper. The data printed on thermal
paper may be destroyed by exposure to light, heat, acids,
PVC, and alcohol. Make a photocopy of the printout for your
archives.
You can connect a recorder directly to the monitor (B850) or use the built-in recorder
option locally (B650, B450). You can also use a recorder over the network connected to
a central station or connected to a remote monitor (other than B650 and B450).
