Part 8 

(CCBLA-238) is used instead, this port can control two cash drawers of above 
models. 

When the printer is used as a kitchen printer, please use this port for 

kitchen bell connection instead.

 

Power Connection

The power connector is a 3-PIN jack between the peripheral 

connector and the parallel connector for PP-8000. Either a Posiflex supplied 
power adaptor or a printer power cable from a Posiflex POS system can be 
connected to this connector to supply power for this printer. During insertion 
of the power plug, be sure to hear the click to obtain a firm contact. 

CAUTION: Before doing the insertion or extraction of the power plug, be 

sure to pull the outer sleeve of the plug backward to release the 
internal latch. Failure to do this could damage the power plug. Such 
damage is considered as an artificial destruction and is not covered 
by the warranty. 

Power On

When all the above cable connections are made correctly, you may 

connect your power adaptor to the wall 
outlet. Make sure that the type of 
power cord and the voltage 
requirement of the power adaptor meet 
the local power conditions. Now the 
printer is ready for power on. 

Self Test

Press and hold down the feed 

button while turning the on / off switch 
on. The printer will then perform a 
self-test. A sample slip of self-test 
result is printed as in the sample at 
right. Please note that both serial and 
parallel interfaces are indicated. That 
means the printer is working on an 
auto-sensing and auto-select algorithm. 

The header is printed in text 

mode and the rest part of this slip is 
printed in page mode. If FEED button 
is pressed at this moment, a font table 
will be printed in text mode again. To 
exit the test printing, please turn the 
printer off and on again.
