Memory switches MSW8-3 through MSW8-4 can be used to congure the settings
below, which save paper.
Top margin suppression
The printer back feeds the paper before printing which reduces the blank space at the top edge of the paper.
The back feed amount can be specied.
Line gap reduce
Automatically compresses the linefeed amount between lines. The compression
ratio can be specied.
CAUTION
Remove the partially cut paper before performing back feed for starting printing. The cut paper may be torn off in the next printing process, which may cause a problem.
Auto side shift (MSW8-6)
This function dissipates heat load during frequent heat generation by a vertical
ruled line or other specic head heating element.
If no data is received within 15 seconds after each cut or print, the print position is automatically slid N* dots to the right. The original print position is returned to at the next slide timing. * N is the MSW8-6 setting value.
CAUTION
If the right margin is too narrow, this may result in some print characters being cut off. This function is disabled under initial settings. To enable this function, use MSW8-6 to specify an appropriate value for the maximum slide
amount.

Pairing operation
You need to perform the operations below the rst time you establish a Bluetooth con­nection for Bluetooth data communication.
1. Detect Bluetooth devices
2. Congure pairing settings
1. Detecting Bluetooth devices
Conrm that Bluetooth is enabled on the host PC before searching for Bluetooth
devices. This product will show up as "CT-S4500_XX"(XX is last 2 digits of unique BD address.) when it is detected. Select this product from among the detected devices. Note: You can search for devices and change the names. When memory switch MSW13-5 is set to "No Response," nothing is displayed by device detection. You can temporarily switch this setting to device detection (detect mode) by opening the paper cover and holding down the FEED button for two seconds. Detect mode is exited when the connection between the host PC is terminated.
2. Conguring pairing settings Normally, selecting the printer during device detection will transition directly to pairing settings.
CAUTION
Some host PC congurations and models may not transition directly to pairing settings after the
printer is selected during device detection.
The operation required to congure pairing settings depends on whether SSP (secure
simple pairing) is enabled on the host PC. If SSP is enabled on the host PC, pairing can be achieved without additional opera­tions. If SSP is disabled on the host PC, you will be prompted to input a passkey. Input the passkey as described below. Passkey Last four digits of the address on the self test printout (Letters A through F are upper­case) Example: If the address is 01:23:45:67:89:AB the passkey is 89AB. If you delete paring information from the host PC without deleting the corresponding pairing information on the printer, the printer may not show up if you detect devices again with the host PC. To delete printer pairing information, open the paper cover and then hold down the
FEED button for ve seconds.
Deleting pairing information on the printer will put the printer into discovery mode.

3.16 Precautions for Creating Applications and Practical Operations

If printing is done immediately after the paper is partially cut and torn off, the top of the next print out may be distorted.
For printing after cutting, we recommend to print with the rst line empty.
If you are using a serial interface that has a slow data transmission speed, streaks may appear in the printouts when you are printing graphics or gradated text, which require large amounts of data. USB interfaces may be susceptible to the effects of electromagnetic interference from the host or environment. If this is the case, try using a cable with ferrite cores on both ends, which are very ef­fective at eliminating EMI.

4.5 Error Indications

Paper end, paper near-end
The end of paper is detected in two stages, paper near-end and paper end. For paper near-end, the status LED lights amber. Prepare to replace the paper. For paper end, the status LED lights red and the buzzer sounds. Load a new paper roll. The buzzer may not sound depending on the memory switch setting.
Cover open
If the cover is opened, the status LED lights red. The buzzer may sound depending on the memory switch setting. Do not open the cover during printing. If the cover is accidentally opened, the status
LED ashes in red and the buzzer sounds. Check the paper, pull it straight out of
the printer by a couple of centimeters, and then close the cover. Printing restarts. A command must be sent to restart printing depending on the memory switch setting.
Cutter error
If the auto cutter stops due to paper jamming, etc., the status LED ashes in red
and the buzzer sounds. Remove the cause and press the FEED key. If the auto cutter still does not move and the paper cover cannot be opened, refer to “Clearing a Cutter Error.”
Refer to 4.2 Clearing a Cutter Error
Print Head Hot
Dense printing, heavy black printing, and continuous printing in a high temperature environment increase the temperature of the print head. When the print head exceeds a certain temperature, the printer stops printing and waits until the
temperature of the print head decreases. At this time, the status LED ashes in red.
When the temperature decreases, printing restarts automatically.

4.6 Paper Jams

Take care to avoid obstruction of the paper outlet and paper jamming around the outlet during printing. If paper cannot get out of the printer, it can roll up on the platen inside the printer and cause an error. If the paper wraps around the platen, open the paper cover and carefully pull the paper out.

4.7 Precautions for Performing Printing for Which Printing Speed Changes

When printing for which the printing speed changes is performed, white lines may be printed or paper may not be fed depending on the printing conditions. To prevent these problems, change the following memory switch settings.
1. Enable MSW2-3 (buffering).
2. Increase the baud rate of MSW7-1 (serial baud rate).
3. Change MSW10-2 (print speed) to a lower level.
CAUTION
Depending on the serial interface transmission speed, ambient temperature, print data duty, and other factors, changing the above settings may not eliminate the problems.
