2.1.1 Looping presenter
The loop generating presenter
mechanism has many benefits;
•It handles documents of
various lengths by storing
the printed paper in a loop.
•It holds the printout until fully
printed and cut before
presenting the completed
printout to the customer.
•When presented, only a
portion of the printout is
ejected, and then when the
customer pulls the paper the
pull detector start the motor
to eject the rest.
You can also select to eject
so that the very end of the
printout is held by the
printer, or eject it fully.
•The retract-and-retain
function can retract
uncollected printouts and
throw them in a wastebasket
inside the kiosk. Retracts
are reported to the driver so
any remaining data for that
printout can be deleted.

Steady light Wrong firmware type or target for firmware loading
Status-codes are reset:
1 When the conditions causing them are removed
2 When the printer is turned off/on
3 When the printhead is lifted and then lowered.
Blink, blink, pause, blink, blink — is the warning-code for paper low1

2.2.3 Voltage indicator
24 V
●
●
Green indicator constantly ON: 24 V present
5 V
The electronics in the printer runs on 5 V. This voltage is generated from the 24 V supply
by a switched mode regulator on the control board. If the green indicator lights up but the
yellow status indicator stays off, this indicates problems with the 5V generation.
1This signaling is disabled by default. It can be disabled/enabled by setting parameter p52
