9.1.3 

Adjusting an external printer

Adjust the printing of data when using an external (A4) printer.

Example:

 Printing data on letter paper.

1.  Press the "

External printer setup

" button.

The following display appears:

2.  Select and highlight fields and enter the desired 

values.

9.1.4 

Switching on an internal printer

Inserting a new paper roll

This function is used exclusively to insert a new paper roll in the internal printer.

1.  Switch on the "

Internal printer on

" button.

The button for the is activated.

2.  Open the printer hood and cover of the printer.
3.  Remove the empty cardboard roll with the shaft. Remove any paper still 

present in the printer by pressing the button on the printer (line feed). Do 
not pull on the paper here!

4.  Slide a new paper roll onto the shaft and insert it into the recess of the 

housing provided for holding the shaft until the shaft latches in audibly.  
Put the paper roll on in such a manner that the paper rolls off to the back.  
Put on the shaft as shown on the label in the paper compartment.

5.  Cut off paper start straight and insert it into the printing unit.
6.  Move paper forward by pressing the line feed button.  

D not pull the paper through by hand!

7.  Guide the paper through the slot in the cover and close the cover again.
