Printer Components: Top Cover to Parallel Interface Card
Components
Description
Top Cover
Opens to allow access to the Printhead, print ribbon and card path.
(Note: This cover must be closed in order for the Printer to begin
printing.)
Release tab
Unlatches the Top Cover.
Printhead
The component of the Printer that actually does the printing. (Note: This
component is fragile and must not be bumped or touched with anything
other than a cleaning pen.)
Power button
and LED
The Power button turns the Printer ON and OFF. (Note: It also serves
to cancel the current print job and reset the Printer for the next print job.)
If a card is left within the Printer after a print job is canceled, it will
automatically be ejected when the Printer is turned back ON.
Media button
and LED
The Media button
is used to pause the Printer during normal
operation and also to resume operation after an error condition is
cleared. (Note: In general, as the icon above this button indicates, errors
are related to either the ribbon or the cards. If an error occurs, the Media
LED will flash.)
See Interpreting the LED Lights in section 2, page 29 for more
information.
(Note: The Printer must have both the Power LED and the Media LED
illuminated in order to print.)

needed.)
