Chapter 5 Sensors and Error Indications

Sensors

Printer Cover Open Sensor

This sensor reacts when the front cover is removed, indicated by the ERROR indicator

(cover open error). Printing is halted.

Head Up Sensor

If the head is moved to the head up position using the head up lever, it is indicated by the

ERROR indicator (Head Up Error.) Printing is halted.

Head Temperature Sensor

To protect the print head from overheating, this sensor functions when the head's tempera-

ture becomes high (approximately 60°C (140°F) or higher) and is indicated by the ER-

ROR indicator (Head Overheat). Printing is halted. When the head's temperature drops

(approximately 55°C (131°F) or lower), printing resumes automatically.

Paper Sensor

This sensor is located in the paper path of the receipt printer and the journal printer. When

paper is inserted in the printer's paper path, the paper is loaded. If the paper in the paper

path runs out, it is indicated by the ERROR indicator (Paper End Error). Printing is halted.

Cutter Position Sensor

Cutter control is executed by means of the cutter position detection sensor. If detection of

the sensor remains ON or OF for 1 second or longer during cutter motor operation, the

printer judges that the cutter motor is locked and halts further cutter operation and printing

at that point.

Sensors

Paper Near End Sensor

This sensor is located on the roll paper holder on the receipt side and the journal side.

When the winding diameter of the roll paper becomes small, it is indicated by the ERROR

indicator. Since the amount of roll paper remaining may differ depending on the thickness

of the winding core, the near end sensor can be set so as to correspond to the thickness of

the winding core.

Setting Method

1. Loosen the adjustment screw holding the sensor lever.

2. Set the top end of the sensor lever on the correct step on the adjustment scale.

Adjustment Screw

Adjustment Scale

Sensor Lever

When the specified paper with a winding core whose outer diameter is ø18 mm and

inner diameter is ø12 mm is used, the approximate adjustment scale step are as fol-

lows. The factory default setting of the scale is lowest position.

Serial Interface

Protocols

X-ON/X-OFF Protocol

Control is by output of the codes for the data transmission request signal X-ON (11 Hex)

and the data transmission stop signal X-OFF (13 Hex). When sending the printer's status

to the Host, this is sent irrespective of the level of the DSR signal.

Conditions for Output of the X-ON Code

•

When all errors have been cleared.

When the remaining buffer capacity is greater than Non bytes.

After the power is turned on, when in the Ready to Receive state.

Conditions for Output of the X-OFF Code

•

When the printer has generated an error and has switched from Online to Offline.

When the remaining buffer capacity is Noff bytes or less.

Even if the X-ON/X-OFF code output conditions are established, the same code is

not output two times in succession. However, times when the power is turned ON

are expected.

When the menu setting error handshake is disabled, XON/XOFF is not output

when the error status changes.

DTR/DSR Protocol

Control is by the level of the DTR signal, Ready “High” /Busy “Low”.

If the printer's status is sent to the Host, it is sent when DSR is “High.” If DSR is “Low,”

the printer waits until it goes “High.”

Conditions for the DTR Signal to become Ready “High”

•

When all the errors have been cleared.

When the remaining buffer capacity is greater than Non bytes.

After the power is turned on, when in the Ready to Receive state.

Conditions for the DTR Signal to become Busy “Low”

•

When the printer has generated an error and has switched from Online to Offline.

When the remaining buffer capacity is Noff bytes or less.

When the menu setting error handshake is disabled, the DTR signal does not change.

Conditions for Non and Noff (Units: Bytes)

•

When there is an 8 KB buffer.

Non=2048

Noff=1024

•

When there is a one line buffer.

Non= 20

Noff=10

Chapter 7 Print Control Codes

(4) Printing in the page mode and return (FF)

Code: [0C] h

The data developed in the entire printing area are printed all at once and the printer

returns to the Standard mode.

•

All the developed data are cleared after printing.

The printing area set by ESC W is initialized.

The paper cut is not executed.

The head of the line is made the next printing position.

This is valid only in the Page mode.

(5) Canceling of print data in the page mode

Code: [18] h

In the Page mode, this cancels all the data in the currently set printing area.

•

Valid when Page mode is selected only.

The portions of data included in the currently set printing area are canceled even if

they are data from a previously set printing area.

(6) Journal tab (RS)

Code: [1E] h

Moves the print position to the head of the journal paper.

[Note] Valid only when Receipt/Journal is selected, printing of the same data by the

receipt and journal printers is cleared and the print position is in the receipt area.

(7) Sending the status in real time [DLE EOT n)

Code: [10] h + [04] h + n

* (1 ≤ n ≤ 4) Data are expressed in Hex code.

The status is sent in real time according to the n specification.

•

n is as follows.

n = 1: Sends the printer status.

n = 2: Sends the off-line factor status.

n = 3: Sends the error factor status.

n = 4: Sends the paper sensor status.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Input Data Format

•

Each status shows the current state. Also, each status is 1 byte of data.

The status is sent without confirming the receiving ready state of the host com-

puter.

•

Executed in the off-line state, when the receiving buffer is full and in the error

state.

•

This command is processed during reception.

In cases where the [10] h [04] h n (1 ≤ n ≤ 4) data string is received, even when it

is other than this command, the user's attention is necessary because the printer's

operation will be the same as when this command is executed.

[Example]

In ESC* m nl nh [dl....dk], d1 = [10] h, d2 = [04] h, d3 = [01] h.

Do not insert this command in the code strings of other commands consisting of

codes with 2 bytes or more.

•

[Example]

If the host side wants to send ESC 3 n, then DLE EOT 3 is sent just at the point

where ESC 3 has been sent, the printer will process the command as ESC 3 [10] h.

Therefore, the user's attention is necessary.

In cases where ASB is valid due to GS a, it is necessary to distinguish between the

status by this command and the ASB status.

Distinguishing the Sending Status

Since the values of specific bits in the status sent by this printer, it is possible to

distinguish which command's status is received.

However, in the case where ASB is used, after confirming the first byte of ASB,

process the next 3 bytes, excluding the XOFF, as ASB data. If this is not done, it

will be impossible to distinguish between status messages such as ESC u and the

second and subsequent bytes of ASB.

Chapter 7 Print Control Codes

(8) Real time enquiry to printer (DLE ENQ n)

Code: [10] h + [05] h + n

* (1 ≤ n ≤ 2) Data are expressed in Hex code.

The printer responds to the requests from the host in real time according to the speci-

fication of n.

n = 1: Resumes printing from the head of the line where an error occurred after

recovery from that error.

n = 2: The printer recovers from the error after clearing the receiving buffer and

the print buffer.

•

This command is enabled only when an auto cutter error has occurred.

This command is processed when it is received.

This command is executed even when the receiving buffer is full.

In cases where the [10] h [05] h n (1 ≤ n ≤ 2) data string is received, even when it

is other than this command, the user's attention is necessary because the printer's

operation will be the same as when this command is executed.

[Example]

In ESC* m nl nh [d] k, d1 = [10] h, d2 = [05] h, d3 = [10] h.

Do not insert this command in the code strings of other commands consisting of

codes with 2 bytes or more.

•

[Example]

If the host side wants to send ESC 3 n, then DLE EOT 3 is sent just at the point

where ESC 3 has been sent, the printer will process the command as ESC 3 [10] h.

Therefore, the user's attention is necessary.

Even if DLE ENQ 2 is executed, the printer will maintain the state it was in when

an error with contents set by ESC !, ESC 3, etc. was generated. The printer can be

completely initialized by this command and ESC@.

(9) Printing of data in the page mode (ESC FF)

Code: [1B] h + [0C] h

This prints out all the data developed in the entire printing area in the Page mode at

once.

•

This command is enabled only when Page mode is selected.

The printer prints on the printing sheet selected by ESC c 0.

The developed data, ESC T and ESC W setting values, and character development

positions are maintained even after printing.

(10) Setting the space between characters (ESC SP n)

Code: (1B) h + [20] h + n

* (0 ≤ n ≤ 20) Data are expressed in Hex code.

The space to the right of characters is set in [n x basic calculated pitch] inches.

•

When the horizontal magnification of characters is 2 or greater, the amount of

space on the right becomes larger at the same magnification.

(1) This does not effect Kanji.

•

The amount of space on the right side of characters can be set independently in the

Standard mode and the Page mode.

The basic calculated pitch is set by GS P. Also, after the amount of right space is

set, this amount of space does not change even if the basic calculated pitch is

changed by GS P.

•

If there is a fraction, interpolation is carried out at the mechanism's minimum pitch.

Remainders are cut off.

In the Standard mode, the basic calculation pitch (x) in the horizontal direction is

used.

In the Page mode, the basic calculation pitch used according to the starting point is

as follows.

(1) If the starting point is specified as "top left" or "bottom right" by ESC T, the

horizontal basic calculation pitch (x) is used.

(2) If the starting point is specified as "top right" or "bottom left" by ESC T, the

vertical basic calculation pitch (y) is used.

•

The maximum value that can be set for the amount of right space is 255/203 inch.

Settings which exceed this maximum value are rounded to the maximum value.

The minimum value is “n = 0”.

horizontal tab (HT) and portions with characters which are rotated 90 degrees to

the right are not underlined.

•

The underline width is the width set in ESC _ with no relation to the character size.

Mixed printing with double enlarged characters, and with characters of different

sizes, is possible.

•

Character sizes can also be specified by GS !, but the command that is set last is the

one that is valid.

The initial value is “n = 0”.

(12) Specifying the absolute print position (ESC $ n1 n2)

Code: [1B] h + [24] h + n1 + n2

* (0 ≤ n1 ≤ FF)

(0 ≤ n2 ≤ 3) Data are expressed in Hex code.

The next printing start position is specified as an absolute position with the left margin

position as the reference. The next printing start position is [(n1 +n2 x 256) x basic

calculation pitch] inch from the left margin position.

•

A specification that exceeds the printing area is disregarded.

The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P.

If there is a fraction in the calculation results, it is interpolated at the mechanism's

minimum pitch. Remainders are cut off.

•

The horizontal basic calculation pitch (x) is used in the Standard mode.

The following operations are executed in the Page mode according to the starting

point.

(1) If the starting point is specified as "top left" or "bottom right" by ESC T, an

absolute position in a direction perpendicular to the paper feed direction (the

character's horizontal direction) is specified. The horizontal basic calculation

pitch (x) is used in calculations at this time.

(2) If the starting point is specified as "top right" or "bottom left" by ESC T, the

absolute position in the paper feed direction (the character's horizontal direc-

tion) is specified. The vertical basic calculation pitch (y) is used at this time.

(13) Specifying/Clearing the download character set (ESC % n)

Code: [1B] h + [25] h + n

* (0 ≤ n ≤ FF) Data are expressed in Hex code.

This command specifies and clears download characters.

•

In n, the least significant bit (n0) becomes enabled. The meaning of the least

significant bit (n0) is as follows.

n0 = 0: The download character set is cleared.

n0 = 1: The download character set is specified.

Download characters and a download bit image (GS *) cannot be defined at the

same time.

•

The initial value is “n0 = 0”.

Data are expressed in Hex code.

This command defines download alphanumeric characters.

•

s indicates the number of bytes in the vertical direction.

n indicates the starting character code and m indicates the end character code. If

only one character is defined, n is made equal to m.

•

Definable character codes are within the range (20) H ~ (7E) H of ASCII code. A

total of 95 characters can be defined.

•

a indicates the number of horizontal dots that are defined.

Dn are the defining data and indicate the pattern of “a” dots from the left end in the

horizontal direction. The pattern remaining on the right end is filled with spaces.

Once it is defined, a download character remains valid until it is redefined, until

ESC @ is executed, until GS * is executed or until the power is switched OFF.

It can be known whether characters are downloaded or not by executing ESC v.

(32) Specifying the relative printing position (ESC \ n1 n2)

Code: [1B] h + [5C] h + n1 + n2

* (0 ≤ n1 ≤ FF)

(0 ≤ n2 ≤ FF) Data are expressed in Hex code.

This command specifies the next printing start position with the current position as the

reference point. the next printing start position is a position [(n1 + n2 x 256) x basic

calculation pitch] inches from the current position.

•

This command is disregarded if the specification exceeds the printing area.

If a position is specified which is to the right of the current position with respect to

the character orientation, the value is a positive number (plus), and if a position is

specified which is to the left, the value is a negative number (minus).

Negative numbers are expressed as a complement of 65536.

For example, if shifting by N pitch to the left, this is expressed by n1 + n2 x 256 =

65536 - N.

•

The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P.

If there is a fraction as a result of calculations, interpolation is carried out at the

mechanism's minimum pitch. Remainders are cut off.

•

The horizontal basic calculation pitch (x) is used in the Standard mode.

In the Page mode, operation is as follows according to the starting point.

(1) If the starting point is specified as “top left” or “bottom right” by ESC T, the

relative position in the direction perpendicular to paper feed (the characters'

horizontal direction) is specified. At this time, the horizontal basic calculation

pitch (x) is used.

(2) If the starting point is specified as “top right” or “bottom left” by ESC T, the

relative position in the paper feed direction (the characters' horizontal direc-

tion) is specified. At this time, the horizontal basic calculation pitch (y) is

used.

Chapter 7 Print Control Codes

•

Except for HRI characters, this command is valid for all characters.

If the setting of either the vertical enlargement rate or the horizontal enlargement

rate deviates from the definition range, this command is disregarded.

In the Standard mode, the vertical direction indicates the paper feed direction and

the horizontal direction indicates the direction perpendicular to the paper feed di-

rection. Therefore, in specifying 90 degree rotated characters, the vertical-hori-

zontal relationship with respect to the characters is reversed.

•

In the Page mode, the vertical direction indicates the vertical direction with respect

to the characters and the horizontal direction indicates the horizontal direction

with respect to the characters.

•

If characters with a different vertical enlargement rate are mixed on the same line,

they are arranged along the base line.

Horizontal and vertical double enlargement can also be specified and cleared by

ESC !, but the command that was processed last becomes the valid command.

The initial value is “n = 0”.

(49) Specifying the character vertical absolute position in the

page mode (GS $ n1 n2)

Code: [1D] h + [24] h + n1 + n2

* (0 ≤ n1 ≤ FF)

(0 ≤ n2 ≤ FF) Data are expressed in Hex code.

In the Page mode, this command specifies the position in the characters' vertical direc-

tion of the data development start position as an absolute position with the starting

point as the reference. The position in the characters' vertical direction of the next data

development start position is a position [(n1 + n2 x 256) x basic calculation pitch] inch

from the starting point.

•

This command is disregarded when a mode other than the Page mode is selected.

An absolute position specification which exceeds the specified print area is disre-

garded.

•

The data development start position does not shift in the characters' horizontal

direction.

•

The starting point used as the reference is specified by ESC T.

Movements from the starting point specified by ESC T are as follows.

(1) If “top left” or “bottom right” is specified as the starting point, the absolute

position in the paper feed direction (characters' vertical direction) is specified.

At this time, the vertical basic calculation pitch (y) is used.

(2) If “top right” or “bottom left” is specified as the starting point, the absolute

position in the direction perpendicular to the paper feed direction (characters'

vertical direction) is specified. At this time, the horizontal basic calculation

pitch (x) is used.

•

The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P.

If there is a fraction, interpolation is carried out at the mechanism's minimum pitch.

Remainders are cut off.

In n, the least significant bit (n0) becomes enabled.

The least significant bit (n0) is as follows.

n0 = 0: Clears printing of black/white reversed characters.

n0 = 1: Specifies printing of black/white reversed characters.

Internal characters and downloaded characters can be printed as black/white re-

versed characters.

The space to the right of characters, set by ESC SP, is also the object of black/

white reversed printing.

•

Bit images, downloaded bit images, bar codes, HRI characters and portions skipped

due to HT, ESC $, ESC ( are not influenced.

•

Spaces between lines are not influenced.

Specification of black/white reversed printing has priority over underline specifi-

cations. Therefore, underlines are not added to black/white reversed characters,

even when underline is specified. However, the underline setting state does not

change.

Setting of this command has no influence on the Page mode.

The maximum settable left margin is the same as the area in the horizontal direc-

tion that can be printed. Settings that exceed the maximum value are rounded to

the maximum value.

•

The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P. Also, once the left margin is set, it will

not change even if the basic calculation pitch is changed by GS P.

The horizontal basic calculation pitch (x) in GS P is used in calculating the left

margin. Also, if there is a fraction, interpolation is carried out at the mechanism's

minimum pitch. Remainders are cut off.

•

The left margin is set for the set sheet selected as valid by ESC c 1.

The left margin can be set independently for the receipt and journal printers, but if

printing of the same data in the receipt and journal printers is specified, the left

•

Setting of this command has no influence on the Page mode.

The print area width is set for a setting sheet enabled by ESC c 1.

The print area width of the receipt and journal printers can be set independently,

but if printing of the same data in both the receipt and journal printers is specified,

the print area width set in the journal printer is disregarded and the setting of the

receipt printer is enabled.

•

If a value which exceeds the printable area of one line is input, it is set with the

entire area except the left margin used as the print area width.

The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P. Also, once the print area width has been

set, it will not change even if the basic calculation pitch is changed by GS P.

The horizontal basic calculation pitch (x) in GS P is used in calculating the print

area width. Also, if there is a fraction in the calculation results, interpolation is

carried out at the mechanism's minimum pitch. Remainders are cut off.

Chapter 7 Print Control Codes

•

When the first character at the head of a line is developed, if the print area width is

too small for the horizontal width of the character you are attempting to develop

(including the right space), the following processing is carried out for that line

only.

(1) The printer enlarges the print area to the right to a size where that character can

fit as long as it doesn't exceed the printable area.

Printable Area

Enlarged to the right

Left Margin

Print Area Width

(2) If a sufficient amount of space still cannot be secured by the processing in (1),

the print area is enlarged to the left (the left margin is reduced).

Printable Area

The left margin

is erased.

Enlarged to the right.

Print area width

(3) If a sufficient amount of space still cannot be secured by the processing in (2),

the right space is erased.

•

When developing a bit image (or a downloaded bit image), if the print area width

does not fill the bit image's minimum horizontal width (2 dots for single density, 1

dot for double density), the following processing is carried out for that line only.

(1) The print area is enlarged to the right until it is equal to the minimum horizon-

tal width of the bit image, as long as it doesn't exceed the printable area.

(2) If a sufficient amount of space still cannot be secured by the processing in 1,

the print area is enlarged to the left (the left margin is reduced).

The initial value is “n1 = B0”, “n2 = 1”.

Input Data Format

(60) Specifying the relative position of characters in

the vertical direction in the page mode (GS \ n1 n2)

Code: [1D] h + [5C] h + n1 + n2

* (0 ≤ n1 ≤ FF)

(0 ≤ n2 ≤ FF) Data are expressed in Hex code.

This command specifies the position in the characters' vertical direction of the data

development start position as the relative position with the current position as the ref-

erence, in the Page mode. The next data development start position is the position

after shifting from the current position [(n1 + n2 x 256) x basic calculation pitch] inch.

•

This command is disregarded except when the Page mode is selected.

If the downward direction from the current position, with respect to the characters,

is specified, the value is a positive number (plus). If the upward direction is speci-

fied, the value is a negative number (minus).

•

Negative numbers are expressed as a complement of 65,536.

For example, if moving in the upward direction by N pitch,

n1 + n2 x 256 = 65536 – N.

•

A relative position which exceeds the specified print area is disregarded.

Operation according to the starting point by ESC T is as follows.

(1) If the starting point is specified as “top left” or “bottom right”, the relative

position in the paper feed direction (vertical direction of the characters) is speci-

fied. At this time, the vertical basic calculation pitch (y) is used.

(2) If the starting point is specified as “top right” or “bottom left”, the relative

position in the direction perpendicular to the paper feed direction (vertical di-

rection of the characters) is specified. At this time, the horizontal basic calcu-

lation pitch (x) is used.

•

The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P.

If there is a fraction, interpolation is carried out at the mechanism's minimum pitch.

Remainders are cut off.

(61) Execution of a macro (GS ^ n1 n2 n3)

Code: [1D] h + [5E] h + n1 + n2 + n3

* (0 ≤ n1 ≤ FF)

(0 ≤ n2 ≤ FF)

(0 ≤ n3 ≤ 1) Data are expressed in Hex code.

This command executes the contents defined by a macro.

•

The meanings of n1~n3 are as follows.

n1: Number of times the macro is executed.

n2: Wait time when a macro is executed.

The printer waits n2 x 100 msec each time a macro is executed.

n3: Macro execution mode

n3 = 0: Specifies continuous execution.

n3 = 1: Specifies execution when the paper feed key is pressed.

Continuous Execution: The macro is executed continuously the number of

times in n1, with the time interval specified in n2 inserted between executions.

Execution by pressing the paper feed key: After waiting the length of time

specified in n2, the ERROR indicator blinks and the printer waits for the paper

feed key to be pressed. When the key is pressed, the macro is executed one

time. This operation is repeated the number of times specified in n1.

If this command is received during macro definition, it means that the macro defi-

nition is terminated. At this time, the contents of the definition are cleared.

If the macro is not defined or if n1 = 0, nothing is executed.

During execution of a macro in the case that n3 = 1, paper feed cannot be done

using the paper feed switch.

•

During the time the printer is waiting for macro execution, the ERROR indicator

blinks.

If even one of the status items is enabled, the printer sends the status when this

command is executed. After that, each time a status that is enabled changes, that

status is sent. At that time, each status expresses the current status, so it is possible

that a status that is not enabled for ASB will change.

•

If every status is disabled, the auto status sending function (ASB function) is dis-

abled.

If the ASB function in the initial state is enabled, the status at the point when

communications were first enabled after the power was switched on is sent.

The 4-byte status shown below is sent without confirm whether the host is ready to

receive or not. Except for the XOFF code, the 4-byte status is always continuous.

This command is executed when the receiving buffer is developed, so there is a

possibility of delay between the reception of the command and sending of the

status due to the status of the receiving buffer.

•

Even at times when the printer specification is disabled due to peripheral device

selection (ESC =), if the status changes, the 4-byte status is sent.

Chapter 7 Print Control Codes

In the case of (1):

•

This command is ended by a NULL code.

In the case of UPC-A and UPC-E, the bar code is printed at the point when 12

bytes of bar code data have been input, then data following next are processed as

ordinary data.

•

In the case of JAN13, the bar code is printed at the point when 13 bytes of bar code

data have been input, then data following next are processed as ordinary data.

In the case of JAN8, the bar code is printed at the point when 8 bytes of bar code

data have been input, then data following next are processed as ordinary data.

The number of data in an ITF bar code is always an even number. If the number of

data should happen to be odd, the final data are disregarded.

In the case of (2):

•

s indicates the number of data. Then from the next data, n bytes are processed as

bar code data.

•

If s deviates from the definition range, command processing is terminated and

processing of data from the next data is as for processing of ordinary data.

In the case of the Standard mode:

•

If D deviates from the definition range, a paper feed only is executed and process-

ing of data from the next data is as for processing of ordinary data.

If the horizontal width of a bar code exceeds the one line printing range, the bar

code is not printed, but a paper feed only is executed.

Paper feed by the amount of the bar code height (including HRI characters when

HRI characters are specified) is executed without relationship to the line feed amount

set by ESC 3, ESC 2, etc.

•

This command is disregarded when data exist in the print buffer.

When character code Dn is a character that cannot be printed, subsequent data are

treated as ordinary characters.

•

After printing of a bar code is completed, the head of the line is made the next print

position.

Except for inverted characters, the print mode (bold characters, double strike char-

acters, underline, character size) has no influence.

In the case of Page Mode:

•

Development of the bar code only is executed and printing is not done. When

development of the bar code is completed, the next dot after the last bar code data

is made the development start position for the next data.

•

If D deviates from the definition range, command processing is terminated and

processing of the next data is the same as for ordinary data.

•

At this time, the data development start position is not shifted.

If the horizontal width of a bar code exceeds the print area, the bar code is not

printed and the data development start position is moved to the left edge of the

place where it deviated from the print area.

(66) Sending of the status (GS r n)

Code: [1D] h + [72] h + n

* (1 ≤ n ≤ 2)

(31 ≤ n ≤ 32) Data are expressed in Hex code.

This commands sends the specified status.

n = 1, 31: Sends the paper sensor status.

n = 2, 32: Sends the drawer kick connector status.

•

When the printer has Serial interface specifications:

In the case of DTR/DSR Control: After confirming that the host computer is ready

to receive, the status is sent. If it is impossible

for the host to receive, waiting continues until

it is possible for it to receive.

In the case of XON/OFF Control: The printer sends the status without confirming

if it is possible or impossible for the host com-

puter to receive.

•

This command is executed during development of the receiving buffer, so if a

command is received in accordance with the receiving buffer's state, there is a

possibility of a delay occurring while the status is being sent.

If ASB is enabled by GS a, it is necessary to distinguish between the status from

this command and the status from ASB. See pages 50~53 for the identification

method.

Maintenance, Cautions

Removing Paper Jams

[Caution] The print head and auto cutter become hot. Do not touch the print head cover or

the outside of the auto cutter with bare hands during printing or immediately after printing.

When removing jammed paper, first check to make sure the temperature of the print head

and auto cutter has dropped sufficiently.

1. Set the printer in the head up condition with the head

platen open.

2. Remove the jammed paper with utmost care.

If the jammed paper is wrapped around the platen roller, take it out a little at a time

while turning the paper feed knob.

•

When removing jammed paper, be sure to set the printer in the head up condition

with the head platen open.

Turning the paper feed knob while in the head down state, or attempting to pull the

paper out, could cause the printer to break down.

If the printer is covered with paper dust, remove it using a brush and vacuum

cleaner.
