Thermal Printer
Paper Out
The printer will automatically detect when the printer paper has run out, and report this using the Status LED. Use the Mode button to
feed through the last few centimetres of paper and fit a new roll.
Head Thermal Limit
After extensive printing the print head temperature may rise to an unusable level. The Status LED will report when this occurs, and printing will be
suspended until the head temperature returns to normal levels.
Paper Tear Procedure
When removing printout from the printer, pull the printout toward the tear bar and tear from one side to the other across the serrated edge. Note:
paper can be torn in either direction as this printer has a double faced tear bar.
How To Open Lid
Pull the lever (as shown) until the lid is released from its locked position. To avoid damage do not use excessive force.
Replacing Paper Roll
If the paper roll needs replacing, open the paper cup lid and remove the remaining paper. Reel off a few centimetres from a new roll of paper. Hold
approximately 5cm of paper outside the device as you place the new roll into the reservoir. Close the lid by applying equal amounts of pressure on each
side ensuring the lid is in the locked position. Now tear the spare paper away.
Paper Feed
Depressing the mode button will allow paper to be fed through the printer.
