The front cover opens about 180 ° downward.
(2) When closing the front cover, hold and close it firmly. When closing, make sure that the roll of paper is
not slackened. If closed with the paper slackened, it could jam.
CAUTION:
When opening the front cover, hold it firmly; because it opens about 180 °, it can break when opened.
4.4 Feeding the Paper
Press the FEED switch on the right panel of the front cover once. The paper is fed by one line. The paper
is also fed while pressing the switch. When you want to feed the paper, do not pull it by force. Use the
FEED switch. E ven if the front cover is opened or the mechanism is lowered, pressing the switch feeds the
paper, but it could cause a paper jam.
CAUTION:
Do not press the switch with a pointed object, as it can cause problems.
4.5 Auto Loading Function
The equipment is provided with a function to automatically load a roll o f pap er into the main bod y. If the roll
of paper is brought to the paper inlet of the printer mechanism, it will be automatically fed by a constant
amount.
CAUTION:
Note that pulling the paper can cause a paper jam or insertion miss.

4.6 Setting the Printing Paper
(1) Open the front cover.
(2) Cut the end of the paper almost at a right angle.
(3) Check the paper winding direction, and set the paper in the paper holder inside the case.
(4) Insert the end of the paper straight into the paper inlet of the printer mechanism. The paper will be
automatically inserted.
(5) Remove slack from the paper, and close the front cover.
(6) Press the FEED switch to feed the paper as required.
* The printing head is kept up at the time of shipment. The paper cannot be automatically inserted in
the printing-head-up state. Shift the head up lever to the near side, to lower the printing head.
* Note that if there are data remaining in the printer buffer, printing will start after auto-loading
(automatic insertion).
CAUTION:
If the set paper is slanted or not properly fed, move up the printing head, remove the paper gently, and
•
insert it again.
When replacing the paper, move up the printing head and pull out the remaining paper gently.

4.7 Remedies for Paper Jam and Cutter Lock
If the paper jams or the auto cutter is locked, follow the procedure below to eliminate the cause. For your
safety, be sure to turn off the power prior to starting the work.
(1) Open the front cover.
(2) Press the mechanical lock lever inward, to lower the mechanism.
(3) Eliminating a paper jam. Eliminate all the jamming paper carefully and gentl y. When pulling ou t the
paper from the printer mechanism, move up the printing head and pull it out gently.
(4) Unlocking the cutter. Eliminate the paper from the cutter section, and turn on the power. Cutter
unlocking operation will be completed if the cutter blade returns and the initial operation is performed.
If the cutter blade does not return or an error recurs, turn off the power, and turn the left inner knob of the
cutter toward the far side, as shown in the figure below. Since the cutter blade withdraws, eliminate the
caught paper gently. Then, turn on the power and confirm that the initial operation is performed.
(5) After eliminating the cause, raise the mechanism back to its home position, return the head up lever, and
turn on the power again.
CAUTION :
Never work with the printing head or motor immediately after printing, as they

4.9 PE and Alarm
4.9.1 Paper End (PE)
The equipment detects if paper is still available. If the paper has run out, it will stop printing, output
BUSY (DTR) and PE, and turn on the PAPER lamp.
If the paper is set, the signals will be canceled and the PAPER lamp will be turned off. After signal
cancellation, the equipment starts printing or waits for data entry. If the paper has run out, but there are
still some data remaining in the buffer, printing will be resumed after setting new paper.
4.9.2 Alarms
If the auto-cutter is locked, the printing head is up, the printing head temperature is increasing, or there is
a certain failure, such as a paper jam, the equipment will halt printing, turn off the power for the motor
and printing head, and output BUSY (DTR), ERROR, and FAULT (Parallel only) to the host.
ERROR output can directly connect to an LED.
Error at power-on
•
The following faults are also possible, but a memory error has occurred. Turn off the power and
CBM-292/293 User’s Manual
contact your dealer.
When the auto-cutter is locked or the paper is jamming
•
Turn off the power and eliminate the fault. When this is done, the data in the buffer are erased
because the power has been turned off. Do not eliminate the fault with the power left on. To
reset, turn on the power again after eliminating the fault.
When the printing head is up
•
Shift the head up lever to the near side. The printing head is lowered, to enable printing.
When the printing head temperature is increasing
•
If a large amount of data has been printed, such as in continuous printing, etc., the printing head
temperature will increase. If this is the case, printing will stop, to protect the printing head.
While printing is halted, various operations (paper feed, etc.) are not available. Wait for the
printing head temperature to drop. After a while the printing head temperature will drop,
enabling printing. If there are still some data remaining in the buffer, printing will be resumed.
CAUTION:
Never work with the printing head or motor immediately after print ing, as they are hot and can burn you.
If such work is unavoidable, never touch t hem direct ly. Be fully careful of static electricit y.
