2cm/minute 37.5 hours
3cm/minute 25 hours

The Print Speed can only be changed through the Secure Settings menu. (See Section 13.5).
9.5 Changing paper packs
Paper packs generally have a pre-printed colored marker to alert the user that the paper is about to reach the
end of its duration. With the Sonicaid paper this starts at approximately 1 metre before the end of the pack,
giving 30-100 minutes notice of paper end. Use this time to unwrap and prepare a new pack ready for printing.
When the paper end is reached, the printer will stop. The printer icon on the control bar will change to
. Print information will be stored in memory for up to 100 hours to allow the paper pack to be changed. Follow
the procedure described below for changing the paper pack.
Once a new pack of paper has been installed and the paper tray pushed home, print icon will return to
and the stored data will be printed at a quick rate until the buffer is empty. Then it will revert to
printing live data.
Finally, ensure that at least one fresh pack of paper is available to replace the old one when it comes to an end.
The printer buffer is cleared if the unit is turned off, or in the event of a power failure.
To avoid contact with sharp edges, do not insert hands inside printer aperture.
