1. UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
1-1. Unpacking
Check each item in the box against Figure 1-1 to make sure that you have
everything.
If any of these items are missing, contact your supplier.
Fig. 1-1
1-2. Locating the printer
Before you start setting up your printer, make sure that you have a suitable place
in which to locate it. By “a suitable place”, we mean:
•Close to an easily accessible socket-outlet.
•A firm, level surface which is fairly vibration-free
•Away from excessive heat (such as direct sunlight, heaters, etc)
•Away from excessive humidity
•Away from excessive dust
•With access to a steady power supply that is not subject to power surges. For
example, do not connect the printer to the same circuit as a large, noise-
producing appliance such as a refrigerator or an air conditioner.
NOTE: Make sure that the line voltage is the voltage specified on the printer’s
identification plate.

3-2. Ferrite Core *Europe only
NOTE:Take special care when following the procedures listed below.
• Pass the fastener through the ferrite
core. Fig. 3-3
• Pass the fastener around the cable
and lock it.
Cut off the excess with a pair of scis-
sors. Fig. 3-4

■A ferrite core noise filter for the
peripheral unit cable comes packed
with the printer.
■The ferrite core is normally packed
so it is opened, as shown in Fig. 3-2.
If you find that the ferrite core is not
opened: Use a pointed object to pry
the plastic lock of the ferrite core
apart, as shown in Fig. 3-1. When
opening it, take care not to damage
the ferrite core or the plastic lock.

■Clamp the ferrite core onto the peripheral unit cable, looping the cable as
shown in Fig. 3-2.
• When installing the ferrite core be careful not to damage the cable.
• The ferrite core should be anchored firmly in place with the fastener that

4. NEAR-END SENSOR
This printer is equipped with a sensor that detects when a roll of paper is near the
end. Read the following if you are going to use this sensor.
1Open the cover.
2Refer to the table below and set the
detection position for the diameter
of the roll being used.
Roll Diameter Adjustment
Position
Approx. 22 mm Step 1
Approx. 26 mm Step 2
Approx. 30 mm Step 3
3Move the sensor and adjust the
guraduation of the sensor to the
adjusted position that corresponds
to the diameter of the roll selected.
Press this hole with a ball point pen or
similar pointed object and slide it into
position.Makesurethattheprotruding
section(shownbyarrow)issecurelyin
the groove, especially at step 2.
Cautions
1) The factory setting is step 1.
2) Alwaysuseapaperrollwithacorethathasaninsidediameterof12mmand
an outside diameter of 18 mm in order to ensure proper detection of the
remaining paper amount.
3) The near-end sensor is disabled when shipped from the factory. It can be
enabled by rewriting the memory switch. Refer to the “Programmer’s
Manual” for details.
