Installation Guide
◈
Connecting the cables
1. Turn off the printer and the host ECR (host computer).
2. Plug the power cord into the Adaptor, and then plug the Adaptor into the power connector
of the printer.
3. Check the interface cable (Serial, Parallel, USB, or Ethernet), and connect the interface
connector cable accordingly.
4. Plug the drawer kick-out cable into the drawer kick-out connector on the printer.
※
Do not use an adapter that was not supplied with the printer.
◈
Installing the Paper Roll
1. Open the paper roll cover by
pressing the cover-open button.
2. Insert a new paper roll, making
sure to align it properly.
3. Pull out a small amount of paper,
and close the cover.
※
Note
When closing the cover, press down
on the center of the cover to ensure
that the paper is in contact with the
roller.
Printing quality may not be optimum
if recommended paper is not used.
(Refer to the User's Manual.)
※
Note : Adjusting the Paper Near-End Sensor
The paper near-end sensor performs the two functions of gauging
‘No Paper’ status as well as detecting black marks. In order to
gauge ‘No Paper’ status, the sensor must be in the “a” position as
shown in the picture. The factory default setting places the
sensor in this position. To detect black marks, the sensor must
be in the "b" position.
Black marks must have an optical density (O.D.) of at least 0.6 to
be safely detected.
As the black mark density of the paper can cause operating
errors, make sure to check it.
※
Note: O.D. Value Chart
1.4 0.9 0.6
0.3 0.2

Using the Operation Panel
•
POWER (LED)

Red LED will be lit when the paper roll is running low. The LED blinks
when the printer is in self-test printing standby mode or macro execution
