Using the Printer

Turning on the Printer

1. Connect the power supply to the printer and turn on the power source. The printer goes through a self–test routine to ensure everything is working properly, and then it “beeps.” After the printer has completed its start-up cycle, it is ready to receive data.
   Note

   If the LED blinks, or the host computer indicates that there is a problem, refer to Troubleshooting Printer Problems.

2. (Optional) Perform a Configuration check.
   1. Do any of the following:
      • Reset the printer while pressing the Paper Feed button.
      • Open the receipt top cover, press and hold the Paper Feed button, and then close the top cover while pressing the Paper Feed button.
   2. Release the Paper Feed button when printing begins.

Turning off the Printer

The printer receives power when the power supply is on even if the printer is offline. To completely remove power, disconnect the power supply from the outlet or turn the POS terminal off.
