Printing from Alpha OAE+
Warning: Before you make any printouts, make sure that the patient is not in contact with Alpha OAE+ by removing the probe from the
patient's ear.
To comply with the safety requirements for a medical device system, connection to the printer must always be done outside the patient area
(min. 1.5 meters/5 feet from the patient).
Note: Testing is not possible when Alpha OAE+ is placed in the docking station or connected to the printer.
Note: Do not switch off Alpha OAE+ while printing is in progress. Doing so may result in distorted test data.
Note: If the label printer is not connected or if it is switched off, an error message appears on the screen.
Note: Use only the label printer recommended. Alpha OAE+ automatically recognizes the label printer.
Note: Do not print from Alpha OAE+ when the label printer status light indicates "Cooling down" or "Buffer overflow."
Note: The Alpha OAE+ docking station should not be connected simultaneously to both a PC and the label printer.
Note: Re-adjust the labels / papers to remove possible paper feed jams.
