PRINTER DESCRIPTION

The printer (fig.1) is comprised of a metal frame (7), paper roll holder (9), printing mechanism (8) and

rewinder (1).

The following keys are located on the control panel: FORM FEED (5), LINE FEED (6), “Power On” LED (4),

Near paper end LED (3) and “Status” LED (2).

•When the LINE FEED (6) key is pressed, the printer advances the paper so that it may be inserted

manually in the printing mechanism. During power-up, if the LINE FEED key is held down, the printer will

perform the FONT TEST routine.

•If the FORM FEED (5) key is enabled, when it is pressed the printer advances the paper the number of

increments programmed in the Eeprom. If the FORM FEED key is not enabled and the printer is in Custom

Emulation mode, when the key is pressed, the code 12 (HEX 0C) is transmitted on the RS232 serial line. This

function may be modified by the ESC = software command (see section on software commands).

•During power-up, if both keys are held down, the printer enters the print setup routine. Following the print-

out of the setup report, the printer remains in standby until a key is pressed or signals arrive from the serial

port; each 10 characters it prints out hexadecimal and ASCII codes (if the characters are underlined, the

receive buffer is full); see Receive buffer hexidecimal print-out.
