Switches / Button /LED-Lamps
Power Switch-Off
The printer has a power switch-off at the backside to turn printer
on and off.
On the front side of the printer there are two buttons:
Online/Offline Button
Is used to connect and disconnect the printers data line to the
data sender.
Paper-Feed-Button ( PF )
If you press the button the paper is pushed immediately.
This function is very helpful when you change the paper roll.
LED-Lamps
The printer has three LED-Lamps:
The green ON-LED-Lamp is on as long as the controller board
is supplied with electrical power.
The yellow Online-Lamp is on as long as the data line is
connected logically to the sender.
The red LED-Lamp is without function for this type of printer.
