Load or change the receipt paper
Change the paper when either a colored stripe appears
on the receipt paper or the printer’s on-line, paper
status, error LED slowly flashes (indicating that 15 ± 10
feet of paper remains on the roll). Change the paper as
soon as possible to avoid running out of paper part way
through a transaction.
If the on-line, paper status, error LED blinks fast, the
paper is out. Change the paper immediately or data may
be lost. The printer will not operate without paper, but it
may continue to accept data into memory from the host
computer. Because the printer cannot print any
transactions, this data in memory may be lost.
If changing the type of paper being used (monochrome
vs. two-color ColorPOS
®
version or manufacturer type),
you will need to send the “Set paper type” (1D 81 m n)
command. Use the “Set paper type” (description found
in the Programming Supplement) or selection in the
configuration menu. (See page 32 for how to enter the
configuration menu and page 48 for types of paper
available.)
1 Open the receipt cover and remove the used roll
(if present).
2 Tear off the end of the new roll so that the edge
is loose.
3 Place the roll into the paper bucket with the paper
unrolling from the bottom of the roll (6), and with a
few inches of paper extending over the cabinet front.
Note: Paper must unroll from the bottom of the roll
to insure that the image will print.
4 Close the receipt cover while holding the paper over
the front of the cabinet (7).
5 Remove the excess paper by tearing it against the
tear-off blade (8).
6 Press the paper feed button to advance the paper
if necessary.
